The Noir series by Al Lamanda pays tribute to the classic crime noir tradition. Both books were published in 2015, with the self-titled Noir followed by Noir Book Two.
The series delivers the dark atmosphere, morally complicated characters, and twisting plots that define the noir genre. Lamanda, who has written extensively in crime fiction including the John Bekker and Kellerman series, uses the Noir duology to work in a purer form of the genre, stripped down to its core elements of shadows, deception, and hard choices.
