Media Reviews"Nobody in this generation matches the breadth and depth of James Ellroy's way with noir." -- Gary S. Kadet, Detroit News "Ellroy spares no sensibilities." -- Los Angeles Times "Always a master at painting the dark portrait, Ellroy put down his broad brush for a sharp pen...He's stripped down the language to a hard, cutting tool." -- Associated Press "Brutal and at the same time believable." -- New York Times "An undeniably artful frenzy of violence, guilt, and unappeased self-loathing. Ellroy's crime fiction represents a high mark in the genre." -- New York Newsday "Ellroy has shifted the margins...these operatic historical novels of postwar Los Angeles are evolutionary advances in crime fiction." -- L.A. Weekly "The sheer joy of language is everywhere in this book, and so is Ellroy's grimly determined sense of play....It is essential reading in the canon of modern crime writing." -- Boston Book Review Publisher NotesThree troubled cops--Ed Exley, desperately seeking glory; vengeful Bud White, a witness to his mother's murder by his father; and Jack Vincennes, a shakedown artist with a dark secret--tread a fine line between right and wrong in 1950s Los Angeles.
