Summer season, 1968. Martin Luther Ruler and Robert Kennedy are useless. The assassination conspiracies have begun to unravel. A dirty-tricks squad is getting ready to deploy at the Democratic Convention in Chicago. Black color militants are warring in southside L.A. The Feds are concocting draconian countermeasures. And fate has positioned three men at the vortex of History.
Dwight Holly is J. Edgar Hoover’s pet strong-arm goon, employing Hoover’s racist designs and obsessed with a leftist shadow shape known as Joan Rosen Klein. Wayne Tedrow—ex-cop and heroin runner—is creating a mob playing mecca in the Dominican Republic and quickly becoming radicalized. Don Crutchfield is a window-peeping youngster private-eye within tantalizing reach of right-wing assassins, left-wing revolutionaries and the powermongers associated with an incendiary time. Their lives collide in search of the Red Goddess Joan—and all of them will pay “a dear and savage price to reside in History.”
Politics noir as only James Ellroy can write it—our recent past razed and completely reconstructed—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. It's the largest and very best work of fiction from an American professional.
