Reviews
"Easy's finely calibrated understanding of and commentary on the social and racial climate around him gives the novel its defining texture and power... A new Easy Rawlins novel is always big news in crime-fiction circles, and this fifteenth entry in the series does not disappoint." -- Booklist, "It is a fair bet that if Walter Mosley has a book coming out during any given month, there's an excellent chance it will be the best mystery of that month. Case in point: his latest. Nothing is quite what it seems in this place, in this time, in this book....I read it all in one sitting, as I just could not stop turning the pages." -- Bruce Tierney, BookPage, Winner of the Lifetime Achievement Award Featured in the New York Time's Book Review's Paperback Row One of The Seattle Tim es' Best New Paperbacks "Mosley is a master of craft and narrative, and through his incredibly vibrant and diverse body of work, our literary heritage has truly been enriched...From mysteries to literary fiction to nonfiction, Mosley's talent and memorable characters have captivated readers everywhere, and the Foundation is proud to honor such an illustrious voice whose work will be enjoyed for years to come... what sets his work apart is his examination of both complex issues and intimate realities through the lens of characters in his fiction, as well as his accomplished historical narrative works and essays." -- National Book Foundation, "Mosley's authorial superpower remains his razor-sharp perception.... This novel is more than a simple mystery meant for entertainment; it and its serial predecessors advocate for the Black hero in literature and in life. ... a strong entry in a robust series and an even stronger entry into the genre that further solidifies Rawlins as an enduring figure, one who has survived and thrived in a world that sees him as less than the hero he is." -- Aaron Coats, Chicago Review of Books, "In the 15th outing for his iconic private detective, Easy Rawlins, Mosley once again chronicles a part of America rendered invisible -- and overpowered -- by whiteness. The book is set in 1969, with Rawlins on the verge of 50, still struggling with professional and romantic and familial conflicts in a Los Angeles about to be beset by the berserk." -- The New York Times Book Review, Editor's Choice, "The ability to simultaneously keep us readers in confusion and in thrall marks Mosley -- winner of the National Book Foundation's 2020 Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters -- as a mystery master....The central mystery in Blood Grove -- as in all the Easy Rawlins books -- is as much about the brazen contradictions of American society as it is about what happened in that orange grove one night. But that mystery turns out to be pretty gripping too." -- Maureen Corrigan, Washington Post, "Walter Mosley's books about Easy Rawlins are crime fiction, not history. But taken together, they're a vivid picture of Black life in Los Angeles in the mid-20th century....Easy Rawlins takes a long strange trip in Blood Grove , and it's a thrill to take it with him." -- Colette Bancroft, Tampa Bay Times, "Mosley does a fine job highlighting a world of Black survivors who know how difficult their struggle remains, every day of every decade. This marvelous series is as relevant as ever." -- Publishers Weekly

Synopsis
"Master of craft and narrative" Walter Mosley returns with this crowning achievement in the Easy Rawlins saga, in which the iconic detective's loyalties are tested on the sun-soaked streets of Southern California (National Book Foundation) It is 1969, and flames can be seen on the horizon, protest wafts like smoke though the thick air, and Easy Rawlins, the Black private detective whose small agency finally has its own office, gets a visit from a white Vietnam veteran. The young man comes to Easy with a story that makes little sense. He and his lover, a beautiful young woman, were attacked in a citrus grove at the city's outskirts. He may have killed a man, and the woman and his dog are now missing. Inclined to turn down what sounds like nothing but trouble, Easy takes the case when he realizes how damaged the young vet is from his war experiences--the bond between veterans superseding all other considerations. The veteran is not Easy's only unlooked-for trouble. Easy's adopted daughter Feather's white uncle shows up uninvited, raising questions and unsettling the life Easy has long forged for the now young woman. Where Feather sees a family reunion, Easy suspects something else, something that will break his heart. Blood Grove is a crackling, moody, and thrilling race through a California of hippies and tycoons, radicals and sociopaths, cops and grifters, both men and women. Easy will need the help of his friends--from the genius Jackson Blue to the dangerous Mouse Alexander, Fearless Jones, and Christmas Black--to make sense of a case that reveals the darkest impulses humans harbor. Blood Grove is a novel of vast scope and intimate insight, and a soulful call for justice by any means necessary.
