Political noir as only Ellroy can write it, "Blood's A Rover"
is a novel of astonishing depth and scope, a massive tale of corruption and
retribution, of ideals at war and the extremity of love. Set in the tumultuous
year of 1968, this novel is the largest and greatest work of fiction by an
American master.
