Noir Quartet: Lipstick & Liars
Acerca de este libro electrónico
NOIR QUARTET: Lipstick & Liars presents four tales of mystery and crime from the grim and gritty netherworld of 'Noir'. You'll amble down big city boulevards where danger lurks around every corner, then discover lurid secrets lurking beneath main street's wholesome veneer. There's love and lust, greed and murder, heroes and villains...but it's hard to tell what's what and who's who when everything may be just another lie coated in lipstick.
Whodunits? Not so much. The Noir Quartet series of short story collections by C.J. Thomas are compact reads, each offering four dark tales of murder, mystery and more, set in the 'then' and the 'now', celebrating classic Noir tropes and then reimagining them in fresh settings.
