another excellent book from ellroy. perfect increase in pace from beginning to end. book noir.
Harboiled mystery - early book by the author
haven't read ita wonderful historic
This story deals with the pride and prejudice against Japanese-Americans in the aftermath of World War II. A very suspenseful mystery. Highly recommended.
Ellroy's earliest novel, and worth reading for that alone. Not as polished as his later work (naturally), but his character Fritz Brown is quite interesting and a little different from his later flawed lead characters (Fritz is flawed differently).
You won't be disappointed unless you're expecting a masterwork.
