The original and original thriller Asphalt Wasteland
He used to be the best driver in the underworld (like his father) before he ended up in jail. When he came out, he put his old life behind him, built his own auto body shop, and became a loving husband and father. But then it went wrong again, the business is being crushed by unfair competition, honest work is not paying off and "Bug" gets talked into one last big event. After all, where the smell of gasoline mixes with fear, no one has it. So he's gonna take a chance. Will he find the right path in the asphalt wasteland, where he is haunted not only by the ghost of his long-lost father but also by the shadows of his own past? Or will he lose everything he cares about?
They wrote about the book
Absolutely sensational - an original, fresh, believable novel full of suspense, wild twists and characters whose life dilemmas will break your heart.
Lee Child
I fell for this book... A furiously fast paced thriller that doesn't go far for a punch. One line says it all: Drive that car like you stole it.
Stephen King
S. A. Cosby
S. A. Cosby is an American author from southeastern Virginia whose books blend a bravura literary style with the harsh realities of the American South. Following My Darkest Prayer, which drew on his experiences as a funeral company employee, he drew critical and reader attention in 2020 with the adrenaline-pumping blockbuster Blacktop Wasteland, followed by the equally critically acclaimed Razorblade Tears. Cosby's writing is at once straightforward and layered, his keen sense of the inner dilemmas of characters teetering on the edge of the law giving his characters unexpected psychological depth and believability. Cosby is one of those exceptional authors who gets better and better with each book.
