Summary
(IBList user synopsis):
The city is at the centre of all good crime writing: Los Angeles has Raymond Chandler, Chicago has Sara Paretsky and Mexico City has Paco Taibo. London has the contributors to London Noir who explore the dark underbelly of the city and celebrate the triple by-passed heart of England's capital. They reveal London to be a city of mayhem and depravity not to be recommended to tourists from Miami!
