Walter Mosley is a genius at describing locations and settings and weaving them into his stories. With Easy Rawlins stories, that usually means L.A. Devil in a Blue Dress is the first chronologically and it sets the stage, acquainting the reader with post-war Los Angeles and the features of Easy's life. The story isn't Mosley's best, but it's still an exciting read. The shortness of the book makes you feel like you need to study each little detail before moving onto the next. And paying attention to the details just makes the journey that much more interesting.
