LOS ANGELES- Best-selling crime novelist James Ellroy has built his career
digging deep into the underworld lore of L.A., drawing connections between
his personal experience and the complex real world histories of cops,
killers, victims and journalists.

Now James Ellroy teams up with Esotouric, the eclectic bus adventure company
whose tours reveal L.A.'s secret history, to debut his personal guided tour
through the city that haunts his dreams and inspires his art. Riding shotgun
and curating the experience is Kim Cooper, creator of the 1947project time
travel blog and host of Esotouric's true crime tours, including The Real
Black Dahlia.

Passengers on "James Ellroy Digs L.A." will gather at Arnie Morton's
downtown bar (opened specially for our party), then accompany the author in
a luxurious coach class bus on an uncensored time travel journey to tony
Hancock Park, where he stalked his teenage classmates and later broke into
houses. . . to the Hollywood flats to explore some of the heinous 1950s
murder cases that fascinated him as a youth and continue to feed his
obsessions. . . and out to El Monte, where his mother Geneva was murdered,
the unsolved crime that runs through all his work, from "The Black Dahlia"
to "My Dark Places."
