A propos de cet article

VIOLENT SPRING, Gary Phillips, softcover, stated first edition thus, stated first printing, 1996. BOOK CONDITION: very good. The text block is in fine condition with no dog ears, marks, or tears. There is no bookplate nor signature of a prior owner. This is not a library book nor a remainder. The Library of Congress call number is printed inside the front cover. The first and last inside covers are age-toned near the edges. The wraps are in very good condition except for a crease in the lower righthand corner of the front cover. 6 ¾ x 4, 257 pages, 10 ounces XX [From the back cover] Gary Phillips knows, Los Angeles and gives readers a realistic, gritty portrait of' this city in turmoil through the eyes of his African American P.I. This is an impressive debut and Ivan Monk is a character who is easy to stay with (The Armchair Detective). A titillating murder mystery, strong action, a plot you can follow and a political edge. Phillips keeps you riveted to each page. He takes you down the front streets and in the back doors of our Los Angeles (Turning Point). Tough, smart, and unabashedly political, Monk is a P.l. for the '90s, and Violent Spring is Phillips' perfect intro to him (Gar Anthony Haywood, author of It's Not a Pretty Sight). L.A. has seen enough violence to last and end too many lifetimes. But when a South Central ground-breaking ceremony unearths the murdered body of a Korean shopkeeper, the streets turn hot again. And when the same gun claims another victim, the city is set to explode. P.l. Ivan Monk is thrown into a maze that stretches from the back alleys of Watts to the back rooms of downtown. Forced to dodge the gangs and the cops, the wealthy power brokers and the neighborhood leaders, Monk must collar the murderer before he kills again, and before L.A. suffers another VIOLENT SPRING.…
