Cinnamon Kiss

A Novel

De: Walter Mosley

Narrado por: Michael Boatman

New York Times best seller Walter Mosley's sizzling new novel pits Easy Rawlins against his greatest challenge ever, a terrifying murder during the Summer of Love. It is the Summer of Love as Cinnamon Kiss opens, and Easy Rawlins is contemplating robbing an armored car. It's farther outside the law than Easy has ever traveled, but his daughter, Feather, needs a medical treatment that costs far more than Easy can earn or borrow in time. And his friend Mouse tells him it's a cinch. Then another friend, Saul Lynx, offers a job that might solve Easy's problem without jail time. He has to track the disappearance of an eccentric prominent attorney. His assistant of sorts, the beautiful "Cinnamon" Cargill, is gone as well. Easy can tell there is much more than he is being told; Robert Lee, his new employer, is as suspect as the man who disappeared. But his need overcomes all concerns, and he plunges into unfamiliar territory, from the newfound hippie enclaves to a vicious plot that stretches back to the battlefields of Europe.©2005 Walter Mosley (P)2005 Time Warner AudioBooks

Reseñas de la Crítica

• 2005 Publishers Weekly Listen Up Award, Mystery/Thriller

"As ever, Mosley is able to capture the era, hippies, Watts, communes, in brief strokes that provide a brilliant background to Easy's search for solutions to both a convoluted mystery and complex personal problems." (Publishers Weekly)

Another Great Easy Rawlins Mystery

Cinnamon Kiss delivered everything I expected from an Easy Rawlins novel: vivid characters, sense of time and place, well-paced story.

One of the pleasures of this series is experiencing Easy's evolution as a man -- seeing the times (1960s in this story) through his eyes, watching him change as he grows older.

Michael Boatman delivers an excellent performance. He varies his voice for each character, his pace is natural, and his voice is pleasing.

Riveting!

Cinnamon Kiss....

Walter Mosley's Easy Rawlins series is absolutly one of my favorites and Cinnamon Kiss made me smile, giggle and anticipate each sentence through the very end.

Well done, Mr. Mosley

Very enjoyable

Overall a quite enjoyable listen and the narrator does his usual excellent job. I found that the story to be a little shallower than I expected with more repetition of the state of the sick daughter than was necessary. Nevertheless the story flows and nothing really takes you out of the world and circumstances the author constructs.

Incredible plotting & writing

Easy arawlind and mouse against high faluting Berkeley types, white Suprematists and Nazis… it’s all that and more. Wonderfully read and totally engrossing.

Music is horrible

I loved the story, great book but the music was horrible, I had to laugh at times because it really didn’t go with the story at all.
