by Eleanor Taylor Bland (Editor)
A dazzling collection of crime and mystery stories by Black authors.
Bringing together today's brightest talent from the field--from Walter Mosley, "one of America's best mystery writers" (
The New York Times), to the late Hugh Holton, whose "gift for retaining suspense is golden" (
Chicago Sun-Times)--it is the first anthology of African-American mystery writers.
Shades of Black is not only a tribute to the art of storytelling, it's a fascinating foray into the rich and widely varied Black experience.
