Santa Cruz Noir by Susie Bright

5.0

A delicious look at the seamy underside of the original “Surf City”—Santa Cruz, California. There are terrific stories by well-known authors such as Elizabeth McKenzie and Naomi Hirahara, but the ones by lesser-known writers are equally as good. If you’ve ever visited Santa Cruz—or intend to do so in the future—you should definitely read this collection of stories. But don’t read it right before turning out the lights at night!
