Troisème et dernier chapitre de la trilogie Underworld USA, après American Tabloid et American Death Trip. Le livre couvre la période 1968-1973. Le choix de l'éditeur français, François Guérif, est de conserver une certaine unité de titres entre les trois volumes de la trilogie. Par conséquent, le roman s'intitulera American Madness en France et Police Gazette aux Etats-Unis. Au mieux, il devrait être publié en 2006, voire 2007. Rappelons cependant que 6 années ont séparé les sorties d'American Tabloid et d'American Death Trip
McDonald: How is that going? Are you fairly deep into the writing of volume three now? Ellroy: Yeah, yeah. I’m deep into it. I’m not promising a delivery date but you know, it’s huge. It’s bigger than The Cold Six Thousand. McDonald: I know you’ve said you want the three novels, literally, to be successively larger. I’m wondering how you sustain your concentration and your interest across this many years. Ellroy: The interest is easy. The concentration … you need a very very strong superstructure. And you need the outlines that you and I discussed when we were in Ann Arbor that day (May 2001). You know, you need a big big super structure and the determination to make it work. Now, one of the big revelations for me, early on as a writer when I was into writing The Big Nowhere, was that I realized I could execute whatever I could conceive of. McDonald: That’s … amazing. That’s stunning. That puts pressure on you, though. If you have that ability, you’ve got to use it … not lay back. Ellroy: Yeah.
