Walter Mosley, getting back on familiar turf
When last we saw Walter Mosley's detective Easy Rawlins, he had just lost control of a car he was driving on the Pacific Coast Highway north of Malibu.

Something clenched down on my left foot and pain lanced up my leg. I ignored this, though, realizing that in a few seconds, I'd be dead."
