As sponsor of the Back-to-Africa movement, he's counting on a big Harlem rally to produce a massive collection--for his own private charity. But the take is hijacked by white gunmen and hidden in a bale of cotton that suddenly everyone wants to get his hands on. As NYPD detectives \"Coffin Ed\" Johnson and \"Grave Digger\" Jones piece together the complexity of the scheme, we are treated to Himes's brand of hard-boiled crime fiction at its very best.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Himes, Chester\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/28\/1988\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Vintage Crime\/Black Lizard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780394759999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.33lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.06h x 5.30w x 0.44d","brand":"Chester Himes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39389770907723,"sku":"9780394759999","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0021\/1697\/6715\/products\/img_06e5f944-1116-45ae-a66d-1d543645ad46.jpg?v=1623122679","url":"https:\/\/blackbookstore.com\/products\/cotton-comes-to-harlem-9780394759999","provider":"Black Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
