Publisher Description

Bonus feature includes an original afterword by James Ellroy, titled "Hillikers," read by Stephen Hoye.

On January 15, 1947, the torture-ravished body of a beautiful young woman is found in a vacant lot. The victim makes headlines as the Black Dahlia–and so begins the greatest manhunt in California history.

Caught up in the investigation are Bucky Bleichert and Lee Blanchard. Both are obsessed with the Dahlia–driven by dark needs to know everything about her past, to capture her killer, to possess the woman even in death. Their quest will take them on a hellish journey through the underbelly of postwar Hollywood, to the core of the dead girl's twisted life, past the extremes of their own psyches–into a region of total madness.

All Elroy books are captivating

This book is good the film based upon is horrible completely miscast. I’ve read every book on Elizabeth short. I can understand how LA was obsessed with her but she’s no hero. No one deserves to die like this but she was mediocre in every way and she used everyone. I didn’t get the worship of her in this spoke. But I respect your way for incorporating it particularly if it help them understand the past.
