Book Description

February 24, 2001
The Easy Rawlins series together for the first time in a 5-title gift set!

The five most popular works by the foremost mystery-writer of the nineties, Walter Mosley, have been collected into a special slip-sleeve audio package

Walter Mosley’s reluctant and existentially minded black detective, Easy Rawlins, has brought Mosley bestseller status and the type of mainstream literary acclaim usually denied writers of mystery thrillers. This outstanding five-volume set brings Rawlins to life and takes the listener into the intricate soul of a singular man. The earthy voice of actor Paul Winfield is the perfect match for the street smart, world weary Rawlins. The set includes:

A Red Death—Rawlins is forced to cut a deal with the FBI to get a corrupt, racist IRS agent off his back. However, Easy finds himself a prime suspect.

Devil in a Blue Dress—It seems simple enough...
there’s good money if Easy can find Daphne Monet, a blond beauty known to frequent jazz clubs, but the case is much more than it appears to be.

A White Butterfly—The serial killing of three black bar girls doesn’t cause a stir until a white coed is similarly killed. The L.A.P.D. calls on Rawlins to go to places they can’t.

Black Betty—Easy hunts for a sensuous woman who leaves a trail of murder and mayhem in her wake, and is plunged into the depths of America’s racial dilemmas and the mysteries of human character.

A Little Yellow Dog—Easy takes a nice quiet job.
Unfortunately, a teacher, two corpses, suspicious police, and a little yellow dog ring the bell on his peaceful existence.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great combination of writer & reader, January 26, 2012
This review is from: Walter Mosley's Easy Rawlins Mysteries (Audio Cassette)
Walter Mosley's Easy Rawlins books are my favorites, although I read all his books & short stories. The characters, the setting - LA over several decades past - the events & issues, & especially the reflections on the events, all come together in Mosley's talented words to create many-faceted, deeply felt stories of life in all its complexities & contradictions. A wonderful author presented through a talented actor/reader.
