|  | Gone Fishin' by Paul Winfield, Walter Mosley
This prequel to the popular Easy Rawlins series (President Bill Clinton is a self-professed fan) fills in the early years in Houston before Easy and Mouse migrated to California. On the brink of marrying his ladylove, EttaMae, Mouse persuades Easy to travel to a town called Pariah for the sake of acquiring quick cash. The journey is an arduous one, robbing Easy of what little innocence he had left. Gone Fishin' is essential reading if one is to understand the motives behind Ezekiel Easy Rawlins, the man readers have come to know and care for through previous novels.
