Newly minted 25-year-old lawyer Bob Abramson joins the DA’s office in San Diego and soon finds himself leading an investigation into the politically charged murder of the mayor’s husband–a powerful, wealthy developer with too many secrets for his wife’s political ambitions. Meanwhile Marcus, Bob’s partner, has accepted a new position at UC San Diego. As they settle in to their new home, they’re thrust into the murder investigation and its political ramifications. A sequel to last year’s popular mystery “Shade.”
Advance review:
Written in the classic style of James Ellroy, Fault Line is a murder mystery you won’t soon forget. With a full cast of characters, a scenic setting, plus a laundry list of suspects, I couldn’t stop reading until the dramatic conclusion. Fans of L.A. Confidential will enjoy this political murder mystery. 5+ stars!
