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.

I love the way Walter Mosley tells his stories. I am always on the edge while the plots unfold. Easy and Mouse.. best friends till the end, are the ultimate dynamic duo. I eagerly anticipate his next novel(s) along with all of the colorful characters he has in mind. Thank you Mr. Mosley and keep up the good work.
