LIGHTNING MEN - THOMAS MULLEN KARTONIERT (TB)

Officer Denny Rakestraw and Negro Officers Lucius Boggs and Tommy Smith have their hands full
in an overcrowded and rapidly changing Atlanta. It's 1950 and racial tensions are simmering as
black families  including Smith's sister  begin moving into formerly all-white neighborhoods.
When Rake's brother-in-law launches a scheme to rally the Ku Klux Klan to save their
neighborhood  his efforts spiral out of control  forcing Rake to choose between loyalty to
family or the law. Across town  Boggs and Smith try to shut down the supply of white lightning
and drugs into their territory  finding themselves up against more powerful foes than they'd
expected. Battling corrupt cops and ex-cons  Nazi brown shirts and rogue Klansmen  the officers
are drawn closer to the fires that threaten to consume the city once again. With echoes of
Walter Mosley and Dennis Lehane  Mullen expands the boundaries of crime fiction  weaving in
eye-opening details from our checkered history (Chicago Tribune).
