Warrant for X by Philip MacDonald – Ellroy Reads

In this week’s episode of Ellroy Reads I discuss Philip MacDonald’s classic mystery Warrant for X. James Ellroy read Warrant for X in 1965, the same year Stephanie Gorman was shot to death in her family home in Los Angeles. I discuss the unusual connection between Warrant for X and the murder of Stephanie Gorman. Ellroy investigated the Gorman homicide and wrote about it in his GQ article ‘Stephanie’.

I hope you enjoy this mix of literary analysis, true crime investigation and stories from Ellroy’s incredible life. If this type of content is your sort of thing, consider subscribing to the channel.
