THE MYSTERY THAT LAUNCHED A LEGENDARY CRIME WRITING CAREER
In 1992, Los Angeles burned. In the aftermath of the Rodney King beating and subsequent riots, a ground-breaking ceremony at the infamous intersection of Florence and Normandie unearths the body of a Korean liquor store owner. Black private eye Ivan Monk searches for the killer—many suspect
the motives for the murder were racial. But then another body turns up, and while the FBI and the Rolling Daltons, the largest gang in the city, dog Monk's trail, Monk questions who the real perpetrators are and whether he can prevent more from dying, including himself, before he uncovers the truth.
