Book Overview

A "taut collection" (USA TODAY) of seven short stories featuring Easy Rawlins from New York Times bestselling and award-winning mystery writer Walter Mosley.

In the "delectably hard-boiled" (Entertainment Weekly) Six Easy Pieces, beloved Ezekiel Rawlins now has a steady job as senior head custodian of Sojourner Truth High School, a nice house with a garden, a loving woman, and children. He counts the blessings of leading a law-abiding life but is nowhere near happy. Easy mourns the loss of his best friend, Mouse. Though he tries to leave the LA street life behind, he still finds himself trading favors and investigating cases of arson, murder, and missing people. People who can't depend on the law to solve their problems, seek out Easy.

A bomb is set in the high school where Easy works. A man's daughter runs off with his employee. A beautiful woman turns up dead and the man who loved her is wrongly accused. Easy is the man people turn to in search of justice and retribution. Set in 1960s Los Angeles, he even becomes party to a killing that the police might call murder.
