I'm calling my new podcast ELLROY READS. I talk about great books which were a major influence on James Ellroy. Today's episode is on COMPULSION, Meyer Levin's epic novel on the Leopold & Loeb case. Dig it you True Crime Loving Cats: https://t.co/N7vHz58dKv

#Crimefiction is often concerned, at its heart, with right and wrong. But reality is messy, and the line gets blurry. That's what the characters in Red Warning face - trying to find the least wrong path to follow. #noir #newbook

@EllroyReader @Shepherd_books Absolutely agree about Perfidia/This Storm. Maybe my feelings about The Enchanters is actually just relief!

[Phil Halton 🇨🇦 @phil_halton]

The intelligence service had become a near state-within-the-state before the Communist takeover, and it only became worse from there. Informers, turncoats and double agents became the norm in a society tearing itself apart. #Afghanistan #crimefiction https://t.co/7Cek02j8UK

What are people saying about "Red Warning"?

I can't thank my readers enough - their comments make the many months of solitary writing worth it.

The popular understanding of how and why the Soviets intervened in #Afghanistan misunderstands a lot of the facts. It was the result of a series of errors and poor estimates, rather than a continuation of "The Great Game." More in my article below.
