Description: | An inventive, page-turning crime thriller with "palpable emotional depth" (New York Times Book Review) in which the Red Scare never ended. USA, 1958. President Joseph McCarthy sits in the White House, elected on a wave of populist xenophobia and barely-concealed anti-Semitism. The country is in the firm grip of McCarthy''s Hueys, a secret police force evolved from the House Un-American Activities Committee. Hollywood''s sparkling vision of the American dream has been suppressed; its remaining talents forced to turn out endless anti-communist propaganda. |
