Has anyone read any of these anthologies? I'm thinking of buying a couple.
They are collections of crime stories written especially for the books set in different cities around the U.S. and the world and they are available as ebooks.
There's about 3 dozen of them and include Brooklyn Noir, Seattle Noir, Boston Noir, London Noir, Copenhagen Noir, Istanbul Noir, etc.
