  1. He’s not a hero. He’s a wound wearing a badge. The Bureau gave Grayson orders. The dreams carved scars. Now something older is giving him instructions. He’s chasing shadows—and maybe his own reflection, leaking blood. 📻🔻🧠

  2. Jay Dratler’s The Pitfall, written 1947, is a nicely twisted noir tale. A cop persuades a writer to romance a girl, but the cop wants the girl himself. Characters driven by madness and sexual obsession and the hero has no idea what's going on.

  3. Fletcher Flora’s 1958 novel Park Avenue Tramp takes a classic noir setup with emotional intrigues, betrayals and infidelities that he develops in unexpected ways with some twisted characters. Truly a neglected gem by an underrated writer.

  4. Killer AKA Passion Killer, a 1965 sleaze/noir novel by Robert Silverberg (as Don Elliott). A man hires a hitman to kill his wife. Emotional and sexual betrayals follow. As sleaze it's good; as noir fiction it's OK. Has a good femme fatale.

  9. Ed McBain's Cut Me In was published in 1954. A guy wakes up next to a blonde. He has no idea who she is. Then he finds his partner Del Gilbert lying dead on his office floor. The safe is open. A good solid mystery with some tasteful sexiness.

  14. The Naked and the Deadly: Lawrence Block in Men's Adventure Magazines is a superb collection. For me the highlights are the three Ed London PI stories and the two Evan Tanner tales. So much pulp fun here. Early Lawrence Block is always a treat.

  19. Gil Brewer’s 1963 Memory of Passion is oddball noir fiction, drenched in lust, desperation and craziness. Bill meets a woman from his past. It’s her all right, but it isn’t. It’s not the same woman, but it is. Frenetic, crazed, fascinating.

  24. Bruce Elliott’s 1952 fine noir novel One is a Lonely Number. A guy busts out of jail but his girl has stolen the money from the robbery. He spent his last five bucks on a whore. He has a good plan for easy money. It won't end well.

  29. Charles Runyon’s The Prettiest Girl I Ever Killed was published in 1965. A thematically and structurally unconventional serial killer story that becomes more and more fascinating as the reader is drawn into the author’s clever and devious game.

  34. Orrie Hitt’s 1957 novel Trailer Tramp falls into the trailer camp sleaze sub-genre. Sex and sin in trailer camps adding up to trouble. Hitt was a genius at combining sleaze and noir. This book has both although he certainly wrote better books.

  35. Mickey Spillane was definitely in the groove when he wrote the fifth Mike Hammer book The Big Kill in 1951. As so often it’s Hammer’s sensitive side that drives him on - it drives him even when he’s blowing away hoodlums with his .45.
