It is a case that will test their mettle and their sanity. “Ellroy creates a kaleidoscope of human passion and dark obsession.” —Library Journal “A great book is one that makes me re-evaluate what I'm doing, dig deeper, try harder, raise my own bar. But James Ellroy's 'The Black Dahlia' was something else entirely, far more than just a great book. It changed my life.”
