Walter Mosley "Devil In A Blue Dress" PDF

The time is 1948. The town is Los Angeles. The hero is Easy Rawlins, an
out of work black war veteran. The mortgage payment's coming due, so
Easy accepts the assignment of finding Daphne Monet, a blonde torch
singer with a penchant for jazz and criminal black consorts. In his
search through a sleazy, fearful city, he is lucky to be under the
protection of the murderous Mouse who wants a piece of the action. Easy
Rawlins is a fascinating creation driving a plot that carries a fine and
bitter sting. With this first novel, Walter Mosley made a distinctly
confident start to his career as a great and inspirational writer.
