Description
"This "excellent anthology" of noir fiction set in Canada's City of Glass features all-new stories by Linda L. Richards, Sam Wiebe, Yasuko Thanh and more ( Quill & Quire , starred review). For many people, Vancouver is a city of affluence, athleisure, and craft beer. But if look a little closer at this gentrified paradise, you'll find the old saying holds true: behind every fortune there's a crime. Hidden beneath Vancouver's gleaming glass skyscrapers are shadowy streets where poverty, drugs, and violence rule the day. These fourteen stories of crime and mayhem in the Pacific Northwest offer an entertaining "mix of wily pros, moody misfits, bewildered bystanders, and a touch of the supernatural" ( Kirkus ). Vancouver Noir features the Arthur Ellis Award-winning story "Terminal City" by Linda L. Richards, and the Arthur Ellis Award-finalist "Wonderful Life" by Sam Wiebe. It also includes entries by Timothy Taylor, Sheena Kamal, Robin Spano, Carleigh Baker, Dietrich Kalteis, Nathan Ripley, Yasuko Thanh, Kristi Charish, Don English, Nick Mamatas, S.G. Wong, and R.M. Greenaway."--,Provided by Freading.
