In 1963 Los Angeles, Harry Ingram, a Black freelance news photographer, begins to suspect foul play when he develops photos of a fatal car crash that appear to reveal tampering with the brake line. Harry’s snooping lands him in the crosshairs of hired killers for a white-supremacy group, but that won’t stop him. “One-Shot Harry” is fast-paced, tough, wry and smart, but what makes this novel a singular sensation is the diverse cityscape of mid-century L.A. that Phillips summons up.
