James Ellroy
"The Freddy Otash novels will be mentioned ... as some of Ellroy's best work.” —NPR
It’s late October 1962. The Cuban Missile Crisis has just concluded. The Russkies blinked and pulled their ICBMs out of Cuba. Attorney General Robert Kennedy fears reprisals from seething commies. He orders a red probe and puts the LAPD on the job.
Freddy Otash is injudiciously named the lead investigating officer. He’s a stone-cold criminal with police sanction and a harrowing dope habit. He homes in on a red-front trade union. There’s a murder on Halloween night. It may link to ex-VP and current gubernatorial candidate Richard Nixon and two commie snuffs from eight years back. Freddy’s overworked and overamped. He’s running the probe, and Bob Haldeman and John Ehrlichman—Tricky Dick Nixon’s head goons—have hired him to keep Nixon away from the smear-minded press.
L.A. is coming unglued. Ex-cop/lawyer Tom Bradley is running for a city council seat and pushing the Rumford Fair Housing Act. Playboy kingpin Hugh Hefner is along for the ride, out to exploit racial tension and peddle untold copies of his smut rag.
Red Sheet is James Ellroy’s most crazed kamikaze run and a daring, subversive work of fiction.
批評家のレビュー
"A head-spinning carom of a book, and a lot of fun amid all the blood and mayhem." —Kirkus Reviews
"Relentless. . . . Ellroy’s dense, slang-laced prose paints a brooding portrait of a city awash in Cold War anxiety. It’s a rewarding ride for noir fans." —Publishers Weekly
“As always, Ellroy’s jargon is jazzy, his characters caricatures on steroids. In the late Otash adventure, readers will find themselves seduced by Ellroy’s hipster take on history’s seamy underside and the amped-up atmosphere in which the plausible and improbable ooze together in a head-spinning daze.” —Booklist
