Description
A devoted husband and father with a steady life in the sunshine—until it starts to unravel—Beauregard “Bug” Montage is pulled back into the only world he knows: the high-stakes one behind the wheel. When a persuasive old connection offers him a “can’t-miss” jewelry store job, Bug finds himself trading hard-won stability for blood, bullets, and the kind of danger that doesn’t care how good your intentions are. In S. A. Cosby’s fast, bareknuckle Southern noir, the plot barrels forward with the momentum of a getaway car while probing what it costs to outrun your past. Themes of identity, family, poverty, and the lingering weight of race and reputation collide as Bug navigates a blacktop wasteland where every turn demands a sacrifice.
