Fearless Jones - first US edition

by Walter Moseley

In the post-WWII Watts neighborhood of LA, Paris Minton and Fearless Jones the first a mild-mannered yet ambitious used-book dealer, the second a homicidally dangerous yet resolutely loyal companion (and also a World War II vet) investigate the burning of Minton's bookstore as well as a series of murders in 1950s Los Angeles. Mixed up in a rather convoluted plot are Jewish Holocaust survivors, Israeli secret agents, a beautiful femme fatale, some eccentric evangelicals, and other assorted characters from black L.A. A great read!

Book has gray boards, quarter bound in with cream-colored cloth, title in red on the spine.
