White Jazz, Inscribed
New York: Alfred a Knopf, 1992. First American Edition. Octavo. Item #031823
349 pages. Lieutenant Dave Kelin, LAPD, learned the ways of the mob (with the benefits to the corrupt cop), but when the Feds announce a full investigation, he feels the heat, local politicians, his LAPD bosses, the drug kingpins and the racketeers for whom he has been loyal. Possibly, his best since LA Confidential. Inscribed: to Darleine [Bucklew], Let's Zoot? signed with his initials. A very good copy bound in 1/4 black cloth over black paper covered boards, initials blocked in silver to upper boards, spine lettering silver, light rubbing to spine, in a very good, unclipped dust jacket with some small rub marks.
