Blonde Faith

Easy Rawlins, the hard-boiled, all too human, black private investigator who made his literary debut in DEVIL IN A BLUE DRESS, is back in his 10th mystery by critically acclaimed crime writer Walter Mosley. This time, the cases Rawlins set out to solve are close to home: when the daughter of his friend Christmas Black shows up on his doorstep, it`s obvious that Black is in trouble. Easy sets out to find him, but not before another friend goes missing: Mouse, Easy`s closest friend, who may be wanted for murder. Mouse`s record with the police isn`t pretty, and if the police find him before Easy does, Mouse`s troubles might come to a violent--and permanent--end. And Easy`s personal life is in shambles as well, after the woman he loves informs him that she is marrying another man. A colorful cast of low-life characters enriches the already compelling plot as Mosley`s favorite hard-bitten character battles through some of the most tormented adventures of his career.
