Fans of his Easy Rawlins and Leonid McGill series will not be disappointed, for we remain in the realm of deliciously gritty noir."? New York Times Book Review"Mosley is a master of craft and narrative, and through his incredibly vibrant and diverse body of work, our literary heritage has truly been enriched..." - National Book Foundation"The ability to simultaneously keep us readers in confusion and in thrall marks Mosley - winner of the National Book Foundation's 2020 Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters - as a mystery master." - Washington Post"Rawlins is the greatest contributor to Los Angeles' literary culture and its native son's repute." - LA Times"Mosley's characteristic writing style is on full display." ?
