L.A. Late @ Night (2014) is Paul D. Marks’s short story collection, featuring crime fiction set in Los Angeles.
The collection gathers multiple stories under one cover, all connected by the city of Los Angeles after dark. Marks writes L.A. as a character in itself, using the city’s streets, bars, and neighborhoods to shape the mood of each piece. The noir tone runs through the entire book.
Marks won a Shamus Award for his mystery writing, and L.A. Late @ Night gives readers a concentrated dose of his L.A.-set crime fiction. Anyone curious about his work will find this collection a good place to start before moving on to his standalone novel Vortex or his Duke Rogers series.
