A Little Yellow Dog

JFK is president and Ezekiel (aka Easy) Porterhouse Rawlins has a job with the Los Angeles Board of Education. No dogs are allowed on the property of the school where Easy works but Pharaoh, the dog in question, belongs to Idabell Turner, a curvaceous teacher with a husband with murder on his mind. After thirteen minutes of passion, Idabell is gone with only Pharaoh to remind Easy of her... It's a dog's life. Once again, Walter Mosley says profound truths about the state of the nation in a fast page turner laced with drugs, desire and death. Within and without the genre, Walter Mosley is the American writer of our times.
