About the Book

A gritty mystery set against the backdrop of New York's hip-hop music culture: "A real page-turner." --PopMatters A security specialist who thrives off of Manhattan's nightlife, D Hunter is the man people turn to when they need help without drawing the attention of the NYPD. When a rising R&B star is kidnapped, music manager Ivy Greenwich hires D for an unusual assignment. Things go well, and D thinks he's done. But now Greenwich wants D to escort mega-pop star Bridgette Haze around the city's hip hop clubs to give her an edgier, more urban image. Hunter reluctantly agrees--and soon finds himself both falling for Haze and in urgent pursuit of a mysterious kidnapper, all while battling his own thirst for revenge, in this fast-paced, noir-tinged mystery fueled by New York City's hip hop culture, featuring a bodyguard-turned-PI whom Library Journal calls "as world weary, yet steadfast, as Philip Marlowe." "George writes with pace and panache . . . packing his tale with more glitzy characters than a red carpet E! broadcast." --Kirkus Reviews "Emmy-winning TV producer George examines the ambition, deception, corruption and pervasive drug culture that lurk on the underside of the music world in this noirish thriller." --Publishers Weekly

About the Author :
Nelson George is one of the foremost black-music critics and historian, and this book, like its sequels (The Plot Against Hip Hop and The Lost Treasures of R&B) has much to draw in hip-hop and R&B enthusiasts. This book launched Nelson George's D. Hunter series, including the acclaimed 2011 murder mystery The Plot Against Hip Hop. Nelson appeared on CNN's In America with Soledad O'Brien and NBC's Last Call with Carson Daly to promote The Plot Against Hip Hop. Nelson George has a high pop culture profile and appears frequently on places like VH1 to comment on black music. This is a reissue. The first edition was published in 2004.

Review :
"From the beginning, there is nonstop action and excitement. D. is a man trying to survive the mean streets and do the right thing, even if it's sometimes hard to know what the right things are." --RT Book Reviews "The ending of the book has me anticipating the next in the series." --Rawsistaz Literary Group "Great reading for the criminal-minded." --Vibe
