St. Louis Noir


Shirley J.          Adult Fiction              Melancholy Fiction all set in the St. Louis Metro area


St. Louis Noir by Scott Phillips    267 pages

A book of all noir stories set in the St. Louis metro area.   I loved this book.  Definitely dark stories but all told so well you won't be able to stop and will wish there was a volume 2.    Various authors either from St. Louis or living in St. Louis came to show tales that call up a black and white movie in your head.    They pull you in,  mab a little rough, maybe a little seedy but all great takes on people, places and events taking place in the STL.    I highly recommend this book especially to those readers who may not always want a happy ending, just a satisfying one.  Well told tales, my compliments to each author.   I highly recommend this book perhaps better slated to adults than teens.
