Description
In the shadow of the Red Scare, three LAPD detectives find their lives entangled in a labyrinth of corruption and moral compromise. As they navigate a grand jury investigation into communist influence within Los Angeles labor unions, each man confronts his own demons and the dark underbelly of power. Ambition, perversion, and deceit weave a hellish tapestry, forcing them to question loyalty, justice, and the true cost of their choices. James Ellroy plunges readers into the seedy heart of 1950s Los Angeles, delivering his signature hard-boiled prose and a relentless exploration of the human capacity for both darkness and survival.
