Little Scarlet - Walter Mosley (CD)
Title: R is for Ricochet Title: Little Scarlet: An Easy Rawlins Mystery Author: Walter Mosley Genre: Fiction / Mystery & Detective Format: 7 CDs. 7 Hrs. (Unabridged) Synopsis: "Easy Rawlins returns to solve a mystery set amid the flames of the hottest summer L.A. has ever seen." "Just after devastating riots tear through Los Angeles in 1965 - when anger is high and fear still smolders everywhere - the police turn up at Easy Rawlins's doorstep. He expects the worst, as usual. But they've come to ask for his help." "A man was wrenched from his car by a mob at the riots' peak and escaped into a nearby apartment building. Soon afterward, a redheaded woman known as Little Scarlet was found dead in that building - and the fleeing man is the obvious suspect. But the man has vanished." "The police fear that their presence in certain neighborhoods could spark a new inferno, so they ask Easy Rawlins to see what he can discover. The vanished man is the key, but he is only the beginning. Easy enlists the help of his longtime friend Mouse to break through the shroud. And what Easy finds is a killer whose rage, like that which burned in the city for weeks, is intrinsically woven around deep-set passions - feelings echoed within Easy himself." Rawlins's hunt for the killer reveals a new city emerging from the ashes, with the promise of a new life for Easy, Mouse, and his old friends Jackson Blue and Jewelle. Review: John Burdett - The Washington Post Although the story is narrated in the first person by Easy Rawlins, who is the hero of a series of Mosley novels, the true protagonist of the book is collectively the riots and their aftermath. Mosley is considerably more interested in the ambiguous state of mind of the black citizenry, the disorientation of the cops and the looted, shambolic condition of Watts itself than he is in the adventures of his hero. Watts, in truth, is a world turned upside down, and Mosley simply points his hero at it and rolls the camera. Marilyn Stasio - The New York Times Sunday Book Review Once he recovers his own street voice, Easy finally comes up with the last word on the riots: ''It's hot and they been sittin' on our necks forever.'' Nobody, but nobody, writes this stuff like Mosley.
