Killing Johnny Fry

Manhattan Bound 5 Train, Last Car, Winthrop
Marc began reading Walter Mosley with Devil In a Blue Dress, the noir-ish pot boiler featuring the likable Easy Rawlins. He read the last Rawlins mystery, Blond Faith, the 10th, which he says--teasingly--might be the end of Rawlins. Marc, who is an elementary school paraprofessional for PS 315 near Brooklyn College, says he thinks Killing Johnny Fry is about a guy whose girlfriend cheated on him. But he just began reading the book. He doesn't know yet.
