Publisher's Summary

The final, posthumous installment of the groundbreaking Harlem Detectives series, a novel of explosive, apocalyptic violence and a startling vision of the effects of racism in America.

The roots of racism and persecution in Tomsson Black's ancestry are deep and staggering. In his own lifetime, his misfortunes have become unbearable and, as they mount, serve as an impetus for a final and cataclysmic act of vengeance—the violent overthrow of white society.

When acclaimed crime writer Chester Himes died in Spain in 1984, it was rumored that an unfinished story in the Harlem Detective series existed that had all but extinguished his heroes and their fraught city in an explosive paroxysm of racial strife. Completed from his notes by Michel Fabre and Robert E. Skinner, Plan B is that harrowing story.

Includes an illuminating introduction by editors Michel Fabre and Robert E. Skinner.
