Los Angeles was the fastest growing city in the world, mad
with oil fever, get-rich-quick schemes, celebrity scandals, and
religious fervor. It was also rife with organized crime, with a
mayor in the pocket of the syndicates and a DA taking bribes to
throw trials. In A Bright and Guilty Place, Richard Rayner
narrates the entwined lives of two men, Dave Clark and Leslie
White, who were caught up in the crimes, murders, and swindles of
the day. Over a few transformative years, as the boom times shaded
into the Depression, the adventures of Clark and White would
inspire pulp fiction and replace L.A.’s reckless optimism with a
new cynicism. Together, theirs is the tale of how the city of
sunshine got noir.
