Celluloid Crimes

By: Well, Deborah

Lights. Camera. Murder.

In Celluloid Crimes, the silver screen casts long, dangerous shadows. This gripping anthology of short stories pays homage to the spirit of the razor-sharp wit and smoky intrigue of classic noir-think The Thin Man with a fresh twist of lemon and blood.

Tales include sharp-talking investigators, private eyes, weary cops, rookie reporters, and even the occasional actors, on the way up, or on the way down. One thing is for sure: Everyone is hiding something. Smart, stylish, and steeped in grit and glamour, Celluloid Crimes delivers mystery with a knowing smile and a loaded .38.

Cue the dramatic music. The reel is rolling. Time to solve a murder.
