American Tabloid trilogy delves into the tumultuous history of the United States through the eyes of three rogue cops entangled in the political machinations of the 1960s. From the rigged election that brought John F. Kennedy to power to the Bay of Pigs disaster and his assassination in Dallas, the series captures the betrayal and chaos that defined the era. As the cover-up unfolds, the narrative spans from Dallas to Vietnam, Las Vegas, and beyond, involving a cast of Klansmen, mafiosi, and corrupt officials. The story continues into the 1970s, where the fallout from the assassinations of RFK and MLK leads to a private eye’s clash with mobsters and FBI enforcers, set against the backdrop of revolution in Haiti and the Dominican Republic. Amidst the turmoil, the anti-heroes find themselves drawn to a Red revolutionary, paying a high price for their place in history.
