White

  Helter Skelter. 1969’s Summer of Love came to an abrupt end when a group of hippies killed seven people -- actress Sharon Tate and four others at Tate’s home, plus a married couple. Here we meet Jack Middleton, an aging LAPD Detective who is convinced The Beatles’ White Album hides clues to these ghastly murders. He is led into the ‘60s underworld of Black Panthers, Hell’s Angels, and psychedelic sexed-up rockers. As Jack figures it out, he is determined to bring a shaggy-haired monster named Charles Manson and his followers to justice ... and he might just accomplish that goal with the help of a zealous African-American narcotics cop named Delware Hicks. “A very good read,“ says Amazon Top 500 Reviewer S. Riaz.
