In the beginning...there was Ezekiel "Easy" Rawlins and Raymond "Mouse" Alexander -- two young men setting out in life, hitting the road in a "borrowed" '36 Ford headed for Pariah, Texas. The volatile Mouse wants to retrieve money from his stepfather so he can marry his EttaMae. But on their steamy bayou excursion, Mouse will choose murder as a way out, while Easy's past liaison with EttaMae floats precariously in his memory. Easy and Mouse are coming of age -- and everything they ever knew about friendship and about themselves is coming apart at the seams....HUBBY'S REVIEW:
In this book Easy and Mouse go back to his home town. This book goes back in time and catches you on these two and how their friendship came to be. This right before Mouse is going to get married and he believes his step dad owes him money from when his mother died. Easy doesn’t won’t to go but does. He starts to regret it on the drive there when they pick up two hitch hikers. From there for Easy it just goes downhill. He is able to figure some things out about his life but he knows Mouse is up to no good. Needless to say all of Easy fears or thoughts come true. Too many things happen to the point that it makes him sick. On the drive home Mouse tells him what happened and really Easy is too scared to do anything else but listen. He knows friends or not he could be next. The wedding comes and after that Easy leaves and then within the year he is in the army and once the war is over he moves to L.A. This is a good book to get you caught up on the early life of these two Easy and Mouse. A good and exciting story.
