Plan B

In the posthumous finale of the Harlem Detectives series, "Plan B," readers are confronted with a harrowing narrative steeped in the roots of racism and persecution that haunt Tomsson Black's ancestry. As his misfortunes accumulate, they set the stage for a climactic act of violent rebellion against white society. Completed from Chester Himes' notes by Michel Fabre and Robert E. Skinner, this story explores explosive themes of racial strife within a city on the brink. An introductory piece by the editors adds further insight into this impactful work.
