" If I hadn't read the Easy Rawlins books, the Socrates Fortlow books, and the Fearless Jones books, this would probably be a 4 star book. As it is, Moseley has written so many good books that he's his own strongest competition. This new detective, Leonid McGill, has potential, and Mosley always has good characters and can tell a good story, but I just wasn't knocked over the way I am with others of Mosley's books. "
