(H/B) DESTINATION: MORGUE

Παρουσίαση

Hollywood Fuck Pad, Hot Prowl Rape-0 and Jungletown Jihad are vintage Ellroy: starting in 1983 and ending in the present day, they are interlinked novellas telling the story of a cop, Rick Jenson, and his twenty-year obsession with Donna Donahue, a beautiful Hollywood actress. The only way Rick can get close to Donna is by bringing her into investigations of the teeming Tinseltown underworld: psychopathic killers, stalkers and terrorists commingle in an unholy cocktail of sex, sleaze and violence. Jenson and Donahue cut a swathe through the cases, treading a high wire of danger and a fatal sexual attraction.
The book also contains eight previously unpublished non-fiction articles ranging from cases from the Los Angeles Police unsolved files to the first article Ellroy has ever written on his imaginative process: Where I Get My Weird Shit.
This is James Ellroy's second collection of short pieces following on from Dick Contino's Blues. (From the publisher)
