| Format: Mass Market Paperback, 351pp. ISBN: 0446610127 Publisher: Warner Books, Incorporated Pub. Date: May 2002, Paris Minton is minding his own business-a small used-book store of which he is the proud proprietor-when a beautiful woman walks in and asks a few questions. Before he knows it, Paris has been beaten up, slept with, shot at, robbed, and his bookstore has been burned to the ground. He's in so much trouble he has no choice but to get his friend Fearless Jones out of jail to help him. Things get scary fast as they look into this woman's past, and the more they learn, the harder it gets-as black men in 1950s L.A. they have few rights, little money, and no recourse under attack. Author Biography: Walter Mosley is the author of the acclaimed Easy Rawlins series, Blue Light and RL's Dream, and two collections of stories featuring Socrates Fortlow, Always Outnumbered, Always Outgunned, for which he received the Anisfield-Wold Award, and Walkin' the Dog.
