«Esta tormenta» is the crime novel by James Ellroy, published by Random House in paperback (688 pages, in Spanish).
January 1942: the city of Los Angeles, still shaken by Pearl Harbor, suffers torrential rains and internment of Japanese people. The discovery of a corpse in Griffith Park unleashes a spiral of fires, gold theft and betrayal. A corrupt cop, a Japanese forensic chemist, a fascist agent and a speculator cross paths.
«Esta tormenta» is the second installment of the second Los Angeles Quartet and the continuation of Perfidia, translated by Carlos Milla Soler.
For those seeking crime and historical fiction set in Los Angeles during World War II.
