Birchfield Library in Birmingham is being rebuilt because of damp problems and a lot of their book stock has been redistributed to other libraries... and others are being sent to be recycled. I rescued this one before it could be destroyed.


Amazon Synopsis

An investigation into the murder of crime writer, James Ellroy's mother. She was murdered in 1958 and the case was never solved, leaving her son to embark on years of petty crime and drinking. Only later, as a writer, did he begin to delve into his past and set out to solve the mystery.
