Enjoyable little whodunnit. My first read by Cosby, and I’ll definitely be coming back for more. 

A recently elected Black sheriff in a small Virginia town has to put his former FBI training to use when a teacher at the local high school is shot, and the once-beloved teacher quickly turns out to have actually been a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Reflecting on racism in the modern era in all its horror, the politics of small towns in the South, and how to keep our loved ones safe, among other topics.
