White Skin Man is a political novel about racism, those who suffer it, those who perpetrate it, and those who stand and watch. The novel pits ex-con Stone Lewis and his friends against an intelligent and ruthless white upremacist and a gang of dangerous skinhead no-hopers.

In addition to writing crime and mystery novels, Baker is a book reviewer for Shots magazine and the Tangled Web. He is also a member of the Murder Squad, a collective of crime writers who use workshops, panels, readings, and lectures to promote the genre.
