Blood's A Rover by James Ellroy
Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King are dead. The Mob, Howard Hughes and J Edgar Hoover are in a struggle for America's soul, drawing into their murderous conspiracies the dammed and the soon-to-be damned.
It's impossible not to read it without a sense of aweThe violence is as frequent as it is extreme, the treachery is tremendous, and the blending of cold ambition and colder political maeuvering is brazen, all of it filtered through diamond-cut prose. It's a stunning and crazy book that could only have been written by the premier lunatic of American letters. Publishers Weekly
