Cinnamon Kiss Zusammenfassung

Cinnamon Kiss: Easy Rawlins 10 Walter Mosley

It is the Summer of Love as CINNAMON KISS opens, and Easy Rawlins is contemplating robbing an armoured car. It's further outside the law than Easy has ever travelled, but his daughter Feather needs a medical treatment that costs far more than Easy can earn or borrow in time. And his friend Mouse tells him it's a cinch. Then another friend, Saul Lynx, offers a job that might solve Easy's problem without jail time. He has to track the disappearance of an eccentric, prominent attorney. His assistant of sort, the beautiful 'Cinnamon' Cargill, has gone as well. Easy can tell there is much more than he is being told - Robert Lee, his new employer, is as suspect as the man who disappeared. But his need overcomes all concerns, and he plunges into unfamiliar territory, from the newfound hippie enclaves to a vicious plot that stretches back to the battlefields of Europe. The New York Times said of Mosley's bestseller, Little Scarlet, 'Nobody, but nobody, writes this stuff like Mosley'. CINNAMON KISS is further proof that he is the absolute master of crime fiction.

Cinnamon Kiss Bewertungen

Underestimating the storytelling power of an old pro such as Mosley, however, is almost as fatal a mistake as crossing Mouse... there are few writers working within the crime genre who re-create time and place with Mosley's effortless exactness, even fewer who can replicate his masterfully sustained sense of danger, and virtually none who possess his burning social conscience. SUNDAY TIMES As usual, just as - perhaps more - absorbing than the plot itself is Easy's journey as a black man struggling through the social and racial politics of West Coast America... Yet another Mosley winner. -- Marcel Berlins THE TIMES You don't need to be familiar with Mosley's previous series, starring Easy Rawlins Private Investigator, to enjoy this story set in San Francisco at the height of the hippy movement... An undercurrent of racism percolates steadily throughout and America's battle between reactionary conservatism and heady elixir or 1960s liberalism is well rendered. Combined with convincing characterisation, they combine to create a thoroughly enjoyable romp. -- Martin Tierney THE HERALD Mosley pulls out all of the stops in this tale and many surprises await the reader. His character of Easy Rawlins is arguably the most sympathetic in mystery fiction... As the book closes, we can tell that Easy is heading into a new phase of life, but what this is will have to wait until the next book in the series. DEADLY PLEASURES Set against the backdrop of the Summer of Love, Cinnamon Kiss is a brilliant follow-up to Mosley's bestseller, Little Scarlet. GOOD BOOK GUIDE If you haven't treated yourself to a Walter Mosley read before, this is a good place to start. CAPITAL MAGAZINE one of Mosley's most entertaining books. The mystery is a particularly good one and no other writer conveys so vividly the feelings and experiences of a black man in a world controlled by people who mistrust, fear and hate him. -- SUSANNA YAGER SUNDAY TELEGRAPH terrific plot THE TIMES
