Walkin’ the Dog

Walter Mosley's quietly dignified hero Socrates Fortlow returns in this follow-up to ALWAYS OUTNUMBERED, ALWAYS OUTGUNNED. This volume of 12 interlocking stories reveals the inner workings of the ex-convict's noble existence within the boiling melting pot of lowlifes and sinners that is his Los Angeles. Socrates' humble desire to walk a straight and narrow path leads him to a troubled youth, whom he unwittingly mentors, and a turn as a social crusader against police brutality.
