From two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning author Colson Whitehead comes the thrilling and entertaining sequel to Harlem Shuffle.

1971, New York City. Trash piles up on the streets, crime is at an all-time high, the city is going bankrupt, and a shooting war has broken out between the NYPD and the Black Liberation Army. Furniture store owner and ex-fence Ray Carney is trying to keep his head down, his business up and his life straight. But then he needs Jackson 5 tickets for his daughter May and he decides to hit up an old police contact, who wants favours in return. For Ray, staying out of the game gets a lot more complicated - and deadly.

1973. The old ways are being overthrown by the thriving counterculture, but Pepper, Carney's enduringly violent partner in crime, is a constant. In these difficult times, Pepper takes on a side gig doing security on a Blaxploitation shoot in Harlem, finding himself in a world of Hollywood stars and celebrity drug dealers, in addition to the usual cast of hustlers, mobsters and hit men. These adversaries underestimate the seasoned crook - to their regret.

1976. Harlem is burning, while the country gears up for the Bicentennial. Carney is trying to come up with a celebratory July 4th advertisement he can actually live with, while his wife Elizabeth is campaigning for her childhood friend, rising politician Alexander Oakes. When a fire seriously injures one of Carney's tenants, he enlists Pepper to look into who may be behind it, navigating a crumbling metropolis run by the shady, the violent and the utterly corrupt.

In scalpel-sharp prose and with unnerving clarity and wit, Colson Whitehead writes about a city that runs on cronyism, threats, ego, ambition, incompetence and even, sometimes, pride. Crook Manifesto is a kaleidoscopic portrait of Harlem, and a searching portrait of how families work in the face of chaos and hostility.

Adorable special occasion suit for boys
Size: 5, Color: Light Blue, Size: 5, Color: Light Blue
I ordered this 3-piece suit for my son and even though it’s currently a little too big for him, I couldn’t resist keeping it because it’s absolutely adorable! The quality really impressed me right out of the package. The fabric feels lightweight and breathable, which will be perfect for warmer weather, and it has a nice polished look without feeling stiff. The set comes with a blazer, vest, and pants, and each piece is very well made. I love the little details like the lapel on the jacket, the adjustable strap on the vest, and the adjustable waist on the pants, which will definitely help as he grows. It looks like a much more expensive suit than it actually is. Even though my son will have to grow into it, I’m already excited for him to wear it. I’m thinking it will be perfect for Easter next year or any special occasion. It’s such a cute outfit, and I love that the pieces can be mixed and matched for different looks. Overall, I’m really happy with this purchase and can’t wait to see him wearing it! The blue color goes well for any occasion and I may have to order my husband a suit in matching shade of blue so they can be twins. The size looks accurate for boys 5T. I took a picture to show the pants next to a pair of unwashed Oshkosh B’Gosh brand straight leg 5T boys denim jeans.

Perfect Summer Suit for Boys – Stylish and Comfortable!
Size: 5, Color: Light Green
I’m so impressed with this **boys' linen summer suit**! 👔🌞 It’s the perfect outfit for warmer weather while still looking sharp and stylish. The **linen fabric** is lightweight and breathable, making it ideal for those hot summer days. My son looked fantastic in it, and he was comfortable all day long, which is a big plus! The suit fits **true to size**, and the cut is modern yet classic. The **jacket** has a great, tailored look without being too stiff, and the **trousers** are just the right fit—not too baggy or too tight. It’s a very **polished** look for events like weddings, family gatherings, or holiday parties. I also love that the **color options** are vibrant and fresh, perfect for summer. The suit is **easy to care for**—I was worried about linen wrinkles, but it’s held up well after a few washes, and the fabric still looks crisp. Overall, this **boys' linen summer suit** is an excellent purchase for any special occasion or just to make your little one look extra sharp during the summer months. **Comfortable, stylish, and durable**—highly recommend! 🌟👔

Nice summer suit for my son
Size: 6, Color: Light Green, Size: 6, Color: Light Green
I got this linen suit for my 7 year old son and it looks really nice on him. The set comes with the blazer, vest, and pants, which makes it look very polished when worn together. The material is lightweight and breathable, which is great for warmer weather. It has that classic linen look but still feels comfortable enough for kids to move around in. My son wore it for a few hours and didn’t complain about it being uncomfortable. I also like the little details like the pockets, the adjustable back on the vest, and the adjustable waistband on the pants. Those features really help with getting a better fit. Another nice thing is that you can mix and match the pieces. He can wear the vest and pants for a slightly more casual look or the full suit for more formal occasions. Overall it’s a really nice suit for kids, especially for events like weddings, family gatherings, or school events. My son looked great in it and it worked perfectly for the occasion.

A good First Communion suit
Size: 6, Color: White, Size: 6, Color: White
This suit looks and feels really nice even though it’s not 100% linen. My son is an average size 7 year old, but I got a size 6 so that the fit would be nice and snug and not loose and baggy. It was the right choice. Comes with a bow tie which is nice, a tie (which is very cheap and poorly made) and a pocket square.

Very stylish💜💜
Size: 6, Color: Light Blue, Size: 6, Color: Light Blue
This little suit for boys is very stylish. I bought it for my grandson for a wedding occasion and it looked very nice. The fabric is not too thick so for the summer wedding it was great. I pick the blue color and it looked fantastic!
