This arrived earlier.
It's the new James Ellroy novel, Blood's A Rover, the third and final instalment of the trilogy that includes American Tabloid and The Cold Six Thousand.
It's taken Ellroy a long time to write this, I've been waiting for years for it. The release date in the U.K. is in November. I couldn't wait so I had it shipped from the U.S. as soon as it was released there.
This is just a quick post to explain why you won't be hearing from me or seeing me over the next few days - unless you are Briony or the cat, in which case I will look like this.
Or perhaps this.
