Description
White Jazz is a gripping novel set in Los Angeles in 1958, where corruption and crime run deep. Lieutenant Dave Klein is embroiled in a complex web of bribes, murder, and deceit as he hunts a thief whose victims don't want him caught.
As the city's politics boil over with controversy over a proposed stadium for the Dodgers, Klein is drawn into a deadly game of cat and mouse. With his department patron, detective chief Ed Exley, and his would-be patron, Captain Dudley Smith, pulling him in different directions, Klein must navigate a treacherous landscape of double-dealing and deceit.
But when a murder is framed on film, and a beautiful starlet's contract is threatened, Klein finds himself fighting for his own life and the life of the woman he's come to care for. With the stakes higher than ever, White Jazz is a tense and gripping thriller that explores the darker side of human nature.
