{"product_id":"white-jazz-l-a-quartet","title":"White Jazz (L. A. Quartet)","description":"Los Angeles, 1958. Killings, beatings, bribes, shakedowns--it's standard procedure for Lieutenant Dave Klein, LAPD. He's a slumlord, a bagman, an enforcer--a power in his own small corner of hell. Then the Feds announce a full-out investigation into local police corruption, and everything goes haywire.\n\nKlein's been hung out as bait, \"a bad cop to draw the heat,\" and the heat's coming from all sides: from local politicians, from LAPD brass, from racketeers and drug kingpins--all of them hell-bent on keeping their own secrets hidden. For Klein, \"forty-two and going on dead,\" it's dues time.\n\nKlein tells his own story--his voice clipped, sharp, often as brutal as the events he's describing--taking us with him on a journey through a world shaped by monstrous ambition, avarice, and perversion. It's a world he created, but now he'll do anything to get out of it alive.\n\nFierce, riveting, and honed to a razor edge, White Jazz is crime fiction at its most shattering.\n\nFrom the Trade Paperback edition.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0679414495\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: HBSV.0679414495.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Ellroy, James\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book  is in good condition and has some writing, underlining, and or highlighting inside.
