Jackson Jones and Mackenzie Cunningham are both Black private investigators operating out of Los Angeles, but where Jackson specializes in high-end clientele whose swagger matches his own, Mackenzie is scrappy, defensive, and easily underestimated. They haven't met until the day they're both hired to find the same missing woman--unaware that they've entered a competition, they keep bumping heads until it's clear that something suspicious is afoot.

Two opposites. Undeniable attraction. Three mobsters. An offer they can't refuse. It sounds like trouble as Jackson Jones and Mackenzie Cunningham, reluctant partners and two of the best private investigators in Los Angeles, return to solve their most dangerous case yet.

Throughout the long centuries of human history is the want, and the need, to share information, to exchange ideas and for that knowledge and experience, for curiosity and learning, to be the basis of a civil society.

Ne var ki, Thoreau okunması kolay bir yazar değildir. Ağır bir dili vardır fikirlerini de oldukça zorlayıcı, kışkırtıcı bir biçimde ifade eder. Bu nedenle de yazılarına öylesine göz gezdiren bir okur Thoreau’yu okumaktan kolayca vazgeçebilir. Oysa fikirleri kaçırılmayacak kadar değerlidir. Bu kitap, Thoreau’nun gönüllü sadelik felsefesine derin ancak ulaşılabilir bir kaynak işlevi görmektedir.
