Set in early 1900’s Harlem with the mafia, and later in Oregon where the KKK is active. Too much cursing for me. A surprising mystery though. Well written.

Slow to start and heavy on the 20s slang, but the split stories -- 1910s Harlem with the Mafia and 1920s Portland with the KKK -- are well-developed and ultimately intertwined.
