Joe caught Klein flush in the stomach and ripped upward with both hands. Blood spurted from his mouth...
SUICIDE HILL
It was simple... and diabolical. Simply select a bank manager, kidnap his girlfriend, then hold her hostage until you've cleaned out the bank.
At first, it was almost a game. But it turned into an orgy of violence, rape and insane revenge.
Investigating is Sergeant Lloyd Hopkins, eager for a chance to clear his tarnished reputation.
But what Hopkins doesn't know is that this time, the enemy is within.
Readers will have their money's worth. Ellroy can't write a dull line
