Blood’s a Rover: Underworld U.S.A. Trilogy Vol. 2

‘America was never innocent.’ Thus begins the Underworld U.S.A. Trilogy . It’s James Ellroy’s pop history of the 1960s, his window-peeper’s view of government misconduct, his dirty trickster’s take on the great events of an incendiary era. It’s a tour de force of the American idiom, and an acknowledged masterpiece. Blood’s a Rover takes us into the 70s. RFK and MLK are dead. A kid private eye clashes with a mob goon and an enforcer for FBI director Edgar Hoover in L.A. There’s an armoured-car heist and a cache of missing emeralds. Revolution brews in Haiti and the Dominican Republic. Amidst all this, all three anti-heros fall for Red revolutionary Joan Rosen Klein. Each will pay ‘a dear and savage price to live History’. —- ISBN: 9781841593951 | ISBN10: 1841593958 | ISBN-13: 978-1841593951
