Anticipation continues to build for De’Shawn Charles Winslow’s DECENT PEOPLE, which was included on
The Millions’ “Most Anticipated: The Great 2023A Book Preview,” alongside generous praise: "[An] expertly-plotted and character-driven follow-up to [IN WEST MILLS]…A haunting, page-turning mystery, DECENT PEOPLE makes a must-read on anyone’s literary list." The book was featured on CrimeReads’ “10 Crime Novels You Should Read This January,” BookBub's “21 of This Winter’s Most Anticipated Mysteries and Thrillers," AARP’s “41 of Winter’s Best New Books,” Lambda Literary's “January’s Most Anticipated LGBTQIA+ Literature,” and Book Riot's “The Best Mystery Books: 2023 Upcoming Titles.” Amazon Book Review also featured DECENT PEOPLE on its round-up of their editors’ best-of picks for January. Editor Vannessa Cronin raves: “I absolutely tore through DECENT PEOPLE, [Winslow’s] second novel set in the fictional Southern town of West Mills…The novel is a straight up whodunit, but Winslow cleverly has the police recede into the background as the questions Jo asks around town set off gossip, finger-pointing, speculation, and rumor. And it’s through those conversations that the townspeople reveal their painful prejudices, shameful secrets, and dark histories in this smart, canny, and page-turning historical Southern mystery.” Bloomsbury will publish the novel on January 17, 2023.

DECENT PEOPLE by De'Shawn Charles Winslow has received a wealth of critical acclaim ahead of its publication this month. The novel received a starred review from BookPage. Reviewer Alice Cary writes: “Anyone who adored Charmaine Wilkerson’s BLACK CAKE and Dolen Perkins-Valdez’s TAKE MY HAND, take note. Winslow invites readers on a satisfying ride that, through his keen observations of human nature, leads to deeper considerations of the glacial progress of racial equality…To reveal such underlying truths, DECENT PEOPLE twists the light this way and that, showing the simmering tensions that can indeed turn deadly.” Cary also interviewed Winslow for BookPage, where Winslow discussed his inspirations for DECENT PEOPLE as well as ideas that he has for his next book. DECENT PEOPLE was also selected as book of the month by both Amazon Books and Apple Books, and was featured on 2023 most-anticipated and must-read lists from Good Housekeeping, USA Today, Electric Literature, Atlanta Journal-Constitution, The Root, The Philadelphia Inquirer, and The Millions.
