LOS ANGELES, 1963 African American Korean War veteran Harry Ingram earns a living as a news photographer and occasional process server chasing police radio calls and dodging baseball bats. With racial tensions running high on the eve of Martin Luther Kings Freedom Rally, Ingram risks becoming a victim at every crime scene he photographs. When Ingram hears about a deadly automobile accident on his police scanner, he recognizes the vehicle described as belonging to his good friend and old army buddy, a white jazz trumpeter. The LAPD declares the car crash an accident, but when Ingram develops his photos, he sees signs of foul play. Ingram feels compelled to play detective, even if it means putting his own life on the line. Armed with his wits, his camera, and occasionally his Colt .45, OneShot Harry plunges headfirst into the seamy underbelly of LA society, tangling with racists, leftists, gangsters, zealots, and lovers, all in the hope of finding something resembling justice for a friend. Master storyteller and crime fiction legend Gary Phillips has filled the pages of OneShot Harry with fascinating historical cameos, wisecracks, tenderness, and an edgeofyourseat thrill ride of a plot with consequences far beyond one dead body.
