DESCRIPTION - Author's first novel features Black journalist Sam Dean in London. Samson Dean, a black journalist in London, is hired to find Virginia Baker, the college-age daughter of a prominent, white conservative MP. Since Virginia was last seen in the company of a young black man, Dean is uncomfortable with the racial implications of the job, nor does he approve of the MP's politics. His bank balance however leaves him no choice but to accept the assignment. Centering his believable, methodical investigation on identifying who Virginia was with, Dean discovers the man is her half-brother, Roy, and that the two are heavily involved in drugs, extortion and prostitution. inventory #16900.
