Publisher's Note "Compelling and intense...Sizzles with realism and detail...WHITE JAZZ is filled with heat--and is Ellroy at his best." THE CLEVELAND PLAIN DEALER It is 1958 and the heat is on LAPD lieutenant Dave Klein. There isn't much he hasn't done in the line of duty--murder, bribery, scams, beatings, shakedowns. But now, with the Feds on the tail of blue corruption, Klein is hung out to dry as a bad example. So it's pay-up time for him. Big time. He plunges into a nightmare world of greed, blood, fists, and twisted sin. A monstrous world he created. But now the monster has turned on its creator.
The toughest and most successful period crime novel yet by the bestselling author of L.A. Confidential and The Black Dahlia. As commanding officer in the LAPD's Administrative Vice Division, David Klein thought he had seen it all. But this is 1958, and murder, bribery, scams, beatings and shakedowns are a way of life.
