It's 1968. Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King are dead. The Mob,
Howard Hughes and J Edgar Hoover are in a struggle for America's
soul, drawing into their murderous conspiracies the damned and the
soon-to-be damned. WAYNE TEDROW JR: parricide, assassin, dope
cooker, mouthpiece for all sides, loyal to none. His journey will
take him deeper into the darkness. DWIGHT HOLLY: Hoover's enforcer
and hellish conspirator in terrible crimes. As Hoover's power
wanes, his destiny lurches towards Richard Nixon and
self-annihilation. DON CRUTCHFIELD: a kid, a nobody, a wheelman and
a private detective who stumbles upon an ungodly conspiracy from
which he and the country may never recover. All three men are drawn
to women on the opposite side of the political and moral spectrum;
all are compromised and ripe for destruction. Blood's a Rover is an
incandescent fusion of fact and fiction, and is James Ellroy's
greatest masterpiece.
