We are behind, & below, the scenes of JFK's presidential election, the Bay of Pigs, the assassination--in the underworld that connects Miami, LA, Chicago, DC--Where the CIA, the Mob, J. Edgar Hoover, Howard Hughes, Jimmy Hoffa, Cuban political exiles & various loose cannons conspire in a covert anarchy--Where the right drugs, the right amount of cash, the right murder, buys a moment of a man's loyalty--Where three renegade law-enforcement officers--a former LA cop & two FBI agents--are shaping events with the virulence of their greed ^ hatred, riding full-blast shotgun into history. James Ellroy's trademark nothing-spared rendering of reality, blistering language & relentless narrative pace are here in electrifying abundance, put to work in a novel as daring as anything he's written: a secret history that zeroes in on a time still shrouded in secrets & blows it wide open.
