Title: A Good Warm Up for "L.A. Confidential"
Review: This book is a great lead in to Ellroy's brilliant L.A. Quartet, mainly "L.A. Confidential." But this book---a fictional account of the murder of Ellroy's mother---is also a great precursor to "My Dark Places." We get a taste of some Ellroy staples: Dudley Smith and his interrogation techniques, as well as the Victory Motel. This book misses a 5-star rating for one simple reason: the ending is just too simple. Everything falls into place too easily, the ending comes so smoothly it is hardly satisfying. After such a great read, the last part of the book is just too anti-climactic.
