Mosley ensures the reader hopes to meet [him] again soon' Sunday Telegraph\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom the creator of Easy Rawlins, Walter Mosley's electric new novel introduces a brand new investigator - Leonid McGill - and a gripping new set of challenges.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe follow former rule-breaker Leonid McGill as he's buffeted between the overlords of New York's underbelly, desperate to turn straight, but unable to say no to a nicely paid job. When we're introduced, he's calling in old favours and greasing NYPD palms to uncover seemingly harmless information for a high-paying client. But when the former schoolmates on his list are bludgeoned to death one by one, McGill realises that a friendly reunion wasn't quite what his taskmaster had in mind. And the awkward questions that follow seem almost welcome in comparison to a visit from Willie Sanderson, a trained killer and 'modern-day Frankenstein', now primed to ensure that McGill breathes his last.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTHE LONG FALL shows Walter Mosley at the height of his powers, breathing new life into American crime writing with sassy dialogue and unflinching social truths. Vividly capturing a city not nearly as cleaned up as its politicians would have us believe, this is new Mosley - and it's just as good as the vintage kind.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Book Express","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43357874225226,"sku":"6362w","price":9.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/9101\/8826\/files\/6362w.jpg?v=1772597966","url":"https:\/\/www.bookexpress.nz\/products\/the-long-fall-leonid-mcgill-1-leonid-mcgill-mysteries-by-walter-mosley","provider":"Book Express","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
