Phoenix, a good place to be from, especially in August when the heat is triple digit. Not as many stories as you would think that elevate the heat as a character, but just as many dark and surprising endings as you would find in New Orleans and the other places of this series.

A collection of noir short stories set in Phoenix. I loved recognizing streets and peculiarities and comments on the weather. Some of the stories were a little hipster and weird, but most of them were great, and one actually made me say "Oh My God" out loud.
