THE AWARD-WINNING AUTHORS OF CASANEGRA AND IN THE NIGHT OF. Blair Underwood, Steven Barnes (Contributor), Tananarive Due (Contributor) Format: Paperback. In the Night of the Heat: A Tennyson Hardwick Novel by Blair Underwood, Tananarive. Handsome “Ten” Hardwick has not only a great backstory but a very promising future. Casanegra: A Tennyson Hardwick Novel (A Tennyson Hardwick Story) by Blair Underwood, Steven Barnes, Tananarive Due. The authors have mixed up a cocktail of exotic elements-the sex for pay industry, the grind and glitz of Hollywood and the rap biz, a smart leavening of black film history-and topped it with a double shot of brutal murder. To clear his name, Hardwick draws on all of his considerable assets: good looks and charm, a $2.5 million house inherited from a devoted client, martial arts skills (Barnes's stock in trade) and connections on both sides of the law.

The next day, she's found dead in a plastic bag with a split skull, and he's a suspect. Tennyson Hardwick-semisuccessful actor, ex-gigolo and incipient sleuth-has the mixed fortune to reconnect with rap superstar Afrodite, a former client, for a night of more than just sex. From going to Roscoe’s Chicken N’ Waffles on Gower and Sunset, making auditions, looking for work, fleeing the past, and going to the hood to fight for your life, Underwood/Due/Barnes gives us one heck of a ride.
