Black Dahlia
General Fiction黑色大丽花
(us) James Ellroy
"I'm scared because good people can be bad people." Elizabeth Short, the well-known victim of the "Black Dahlia" case. No one knew about it before his death, but after his death it became popular all over the United States. I didn't know her when she was alive. To me, she exists through other people. Looking back on the past, I see her as just a sad and insignificant slutty girl. I - "Bangle" Brachet, a former boxer and active police detective - investigated the "Black Dahlia" case with a righteous heart, but fell hopelessly in love with her. The dahlia seemed like a beacon of light from my dark past, illuminating the lies, sin, and pain deep within me. I want to have her, even if she is dead. The "Black Dahlia" case was a one-way ticket to hell. I asked Dahlia to repay my love for her by wishing me a safe journey.
