What this book is about
The first Fearless Jones novel introduces a different Mosley duo: Paris Minton, a quiet used book dealer, and Fearless Jones, the most physically capable and morally direct man Paris knows. When a woman asks Paris for help, Fearless gets involved, and things escalate. Mosley's 1950s Los Angeles is as fully realized as Easy Rawlins's, and the Fearless Jones series is his most underrated.
