Nevada Noir: A Trilogy of Short Stories

In these three dark and brooding short stories, set in and around the US state of Nevada, a cast of disparate characters struggle with greed and temptation, and the cursed lure of easy money... ...an old man goes in search of his son in the aftermath of a terrible storm, a couple down on their luck make a life-changing discovery and an ex-cop has one last impossible decision to make... Are you brave enough to take a trip to the badlands today? Set in the barren scrublands of Nevada; the neon glow of Sin City Las Vegas; and the stark, deadly beauty of Zion National Park in Utah; Nevada Noir is perfect for fans of authors like Elmore Leonard, James Ellroy, Cormac McCarthy, James Sallis, Raymond Chandler, Chester Himes, Lee Child, Martin Cruz Smith and Roberto Bolano - and of genres including noir, neo-noir, western, neo-western, pulp fiction, southern gothic and crime and detective fiction and mystery. Nevada Noir is short, dark and deadly - like a cortado laced with cyanide or a Beretta Pico. You have been warned... "brutal and beautiful, like a Dodge Charger kicking up dirt and grit as it tailspins away and disappears in a cloud of grimy dust" "turbo-charged crime-em-up that kicks like a shotgun to the heart" "a powerful novella of greed, brutality, despair... a superb debut" "Stunning." CORONA - the darkly dystopian debut novel from David Arrowsmith is OUT NOW!
