I heard about Rachel Howzell Hall on NPR.

We need diverse books so it is good to see a female black LA homicide detective written by a black woman author! And not just a cartoon -- a complex, fully imagined woman.
The first book in the series was a little rough but this is a tight plot-driven mystery. Looking forward to the next two in the series.
