Teufel in Blau (1995)
Los Angeles: Easy Rawlins - momentan ohne Arbeit - weiß nicht, wie er die nächste Miete bezahlen soll. Da bietet ihm ein undurchsichtiger Typ namens Albright einen lukrativen Job an. Natürlich greift Easy sofort zu: er soll eine geheimnisvolle Lady aufspüren - Daphne Monet, die nach einer Affaire mit einem Politiker spurlos verschwunden ist. Easy taucht ab ins Milieu der neonschrillen Bars und dunklen Clubs und trifft auf Coretta, eine Freundin von Daphne. Eine kurze Romanze mit ihr endet jäh: Coretta wird brutal ermordet! Und schon ist Easy mitten drin im tödlichen Sumpf aus korrupter Politik, brutalen Cops, Erpressung und Mord. Jetzt ruft er seinen Freund Mouse zu Hilfe. Der kann mit dem Schießeisen umgehen wie kein anderer ...
