Bad Boy Brawly Brown
Bad Boy Brawly Brown: An Easy Rawlins Mystery | Walter Mosley
1 post | 3 read | 3 to read
Easy Rawlins is out of the investigation business and as far away from crime as a black man can be in 1960s Los Angeles. But living around desperate men means life gets complicated sometimes. When an old friend gets in enough trouble to ask for Easy's help, he finds he can't refuse. Young Brawly Brown has traded in his family for The Clan of the First Men, a group rejecting white leadership and laws. Brown's mom asks Easy to make sure her baby's okay, and Easy promises to find him. His first day on the case, Easy comes face-to-face with a corpse, and before he knows it he is a murder suspect and in the middle of a police raid. Brawly Brown is clearly the kind of trouble most folks try to avoid. It takes everything Easy has just to stay alive as he explores a world filled with betrayals and predators like he never imagined.

I love the Easy Rawlins series and this has been my favorite so far. Very well constructed mystery - and Mosley's characters are always wonderful.

Nag1 I love this and White Butterfly. I love how he writes about the importance of school and education. It‘s great how he refers to books and authors in every Easy Rawlins book. 4y
