Det. Sgt. Lloyd Hopkins is the most brilliant homicide detective in the Los Angeles Police Department. A thinking cop in a brutal world, hunting down monsters has, for him, gone from occupational hazard to obsession. In Because the Night , a hero cop named Jacob Herzog has disappeared, and a multiple homicide in which the killer used a pre-Civil War revolver remains unsolved. As Lloyd Hopkins pieces the puzzle together, he uncovers a startling trail of arcane secrets and madness--all leading to a mastermind psychotic . . . This is Ellroy at his best: stark, uncompromising, and exquisite.
