Dateline: Bronzeville - A Runny Walker Mystery by Donald Brooks Jones and Philip Mallory Jones
Corruption, scandal...murder—just a day in the life of Runny Walker, a man-about-town and photojournalist for The Chicago Advocate. His news beat is Bronzeville, where mysteries run deep and solving them can cost your life!
Runny Walker makes his debut in Dateline: Bronzeville, a fast-paced mystery adventure set on the South Side of Chicago in 1940. Dateline: Bronzeville is the first in a series of Runny Walker Mysteries.
This remarkable collaboration melds stunningly beautiful original artwork by acclaimed media artist, Philip Mallory Jones with a dynamic ‘ripped from the headlines’ mystery tale by his brother, Donald Brooks Jones.
Both brothers agree that the story has roots in the most significant and most under-reported event of the twentieth century, the Great Migration. Millions of African Americans fled the harsh realities of the Jim Crow South in great streams that followed the railways and highways north and west. They were in search of a better life and opportunity. The new homes they made altered the course of a nation and brought about dramatic changes to America’s cultural, economic, and political landscape; the results of which are felt to this day.
Runny Walker is a new American Hero and Dateline: Bronzeville transports the reader to a place and time unique in American history. It brings to life all the hustlers and ne’er-do-wells, strivers and survivors in the great Black Metropolis of America - Bronzeville.
