Publisher's Summary

The Cool Cottontail is the second in the Virgil Tibbs mystery series. In this mystery, Tibbs finds himself at a nudist colony in Los Angeles where the victim (who was not one of the guests) is found floating dead in the pool. Set against this unusual backdrop, the guests of the resort prefer guarding their secrets to solving the murder mystery, particularly when the investigating detective is black.

Author John Ball often used social issues of the day to feature as issues in his work, making his work controversial but at the same time, some of the best and most relevant fiction of his time. Along with racism other social taboos, Ball had no problem with nudism; naked people are the least of the problems these characters face.

A sequel to In the Heat of the Night, who knew

Virgil Tibbs is back in California for the sequel to In the Heat of the Night.
This time he's dealing with the body of a man found in the swimming pool of a nudist resort. And first he has to identify who this man is. 1960's California has its own prejudices that Virgil must tactfully navigate all the while trying to catch a killer who may strike again to prevent being found out
