The World As It Is - Paperback

by Donald Levin (Author)

Detroit 1963. The lives of four strangers intersect when a shocking act of police violence inflames the city: Amp Hamilton, aspiring Motown musician and eyewitness to the killing of a Black woman by a white cop; Hannah Posner, fiery civil rights attorney battling racism and police corruption in her search for justice; David Buchalter, drifting and searching for meaning at the beginning of a decade of intense social and political upheaval; and Denny Rankin, ex-cop whose investigation into the death of a small-time con artist draws him deep into Detroit's criminal underworld.

The final volume in Levin's Detroit Quartet brings these four together in a riveting, detailed portrait of a city-and nation-on the brink of tumultuous tragedies and changes.
