Los Angeles Noir

Of the 17 contributors, bestseller Michael Connelly is most likely to be familiar to a wide audience. Connelly`s `Mulholland Drive`, a nice tribute to the classic noir film `Double Indemnity`, is representative of the quality writing that followers of previous volumes have come to expect. The movie industry, both latter-day and the present, offers a rich background for tight tales of trapped men and women whose passions or desperate circumstances lead them to violent ends, such as the book`s stand-out, Janet Fitch`s `The Method`. Another highpoint is the collection`s concluding story, Diana Wagman`s `What You See`, a depressing but compelling tale of a tragic obsession.
