Reseña del editor

The author of American Tabloid provides a vivid, unflinching account of the 1958 murder of his mother, the failed probe into her killing, its impact on own life, and the results of an investigation, with ex-homicide detective Bill Stoner, into the crime. 75,000 first printing. Tour.

Nota de la solapa

n James Ellroy was 10 years old, his mother's body was found in a run-down town near Los Angeles. The murderer was never found; the case remains unsolved. This remarkable book--part unflinching autobiography, part vivid reportage--tells an extraordinarily gripping story about the failed murder investigation, uncovering Ellroy's daring, revelatory journey into and through his most forbidding memories. 14 photos.
