Epic mashups of historical fact and filthy fantasy . . . no one does it better than Ellroy * The Times, 'Best new crime fiction for September 2023' * This entire book is one gleefully violent foul-mouthed research note. It’s vivid, gripping, surreal * Spectator * No one captures the nightmare that lies behind the American dream better than the unforgettable Ellroy . . . This is the master of darkness at his incomparable best — simply impossible to put down * Daily Mail * Nobody does crime like James Ellroy . . . One of Ellroy's best works in years -- Dan Jones * Sunday Times * One of the great American writers of our time * Los Angeles Times * Ask me to name the best living novelist who's fierce, brave, funny, scatological, beautiful, convoluted, and paranoid . . . and it becomes simple: James Ellroy. If insanity illuminated by highly dangerous strokes of literary lightning is your thing, then Ellroy is your man -- Stephen King James Ellroy is the American Dostoyevsky -- Joyce Carol Oates Truly invigorating . . . demonically riveting -- Jake Kerridge * Telegraph * Highly entertaining * Irish Independent * Electrifying * Buzz Magazine * I enjoyed The Enchanters, James Ellroy's sleazy, scabrous riff on the death of Marilyn Monroe -- Dan Jones * Mail on Sunday, Books of the Year *
