Blood Grove

By: Walter Mosley

Narrated by: Michael Boatman

Walter Mosley's infamous detective Easy Rawlins is back, with a new mystery to solve on the sun-soaked streets of Southern California.

Ezekiel "Easy" Porterhouse Rawlins is an unlicensed private investigator turned hard-boiled detective always willing to do what it takes to get things done in the racially charged, dark underbelly of Los Angeles.

But when Easy is approached by a shell-shocked Vietnam War veteran—a young white man who claims to have gotten into a fight protecting a white woman from a black man—he knows he shouldn't take the case.

Though he sees nothing but trouble in the brooding ex-soldier's eyes, Easy, a vet himself, feels a kinship form between them. Easy embarks on an investigation that takes him from mountaintops to the desert, through South Central and into sex clubs and the homes of the fabulously wealthy, facing hippies, the mob, and old friends perhaps more dangerous than anyone else.

Set against the social and political upheaval of the late 1960s, Blood Grove is ultimately a story about survival, not only of the body but also the soul.

Widely hailed as "incomparable" (Chicago Tribune) and "dazzling" (Tampa Bay Times), Walter Mosley proves that he's at the top of his game in this bold return to the endlessly entertaining series that has kept fans on their toes for years.

Bravo As Entertaining and Shocking as Ever!

This audiobook will keep you entertained from start to surprising finish...

the cast of characters flow well and the plot is exceptionally cloaked quite well!

All caught up

Welp, I’m all caught up with Easy R, I have to wait for the next release and I can’t wait! Another great read and Michael Boatman is amazing! Fingers crossed Edna will be in the new book even if it’s a cameo appearance. Maybe he thinks he sees her or something. Idk, but would love to know what she’s up to and if she knows her who her father is.

Relationship between Easy and his daughter

Sometimes the going back in time; but I got the point and reason. He always made the point relevant.

Another outstanding Walter Moseley production

As usual, I loved everything about this production. I'm looking forward to the next one.

Its Walter Mosley, Exactly what I was hoping for.

I love everything about this book. I want to know more about Easy and the other characters. Mouse is so evil, but a good evil to play with a frequently used quote I don't need to repeat. Thank you Walter Mosley
