Brown's Requiem by James Ellroy
Non-Series
Mysterious Press
This stand-alone novel, originally published in 1981, was adapted into the 2000 feature film Brown's Requiem starring Michael Rooker as Fritz Brown.
About Brown's Requiem (from the publisher): Fritz Brown's L.A. — and his life — are masses of contradictions, like stirring chorals sung for the dead. A less-than-spotless former cop with a drinking problem — a private eye-cum repo man with a taste for great music — he has ben known to wallow in the grime beneath the Hollywood glitter. But Fritz Brown's life is about to change, thanks to the appearance of a racist psycho who flashes too much cash for a golf caddie and who walked away clean from a multiple murder rap. Reopening this case could be Fritz's redemption; his welcome back to a moral world and his path to a pure and perfect love. But to get there, he must make it through a grim, lightless place where evil has no national borders; where lies beget lies and death begets death; where there's little tolerance for Bach or Beethoven and deadly arson is a lesser mortal sin; and where a private eye's unhealthy interest in the past can turn beautiful music into a funeral dirge.
