Following the success of the award-winning bestseller Brooklyn Noir, this is the third volume in Akashic's grounbreaking series of original noir anthologies. This volume is set in San Francisco, the city that put film noir on the map. Barry Gifford, Kate Braverman, Michelle Tea and Jon Longhi are just a few of the stellar cast that Maravelis has coralled into this brilliant collection of haunting noir in the city shrouded by fog.
Peter Maravelis was born and raised in San Francisco where he still resides. He is currently the events programmer at City Lights Booksellers and hosts a literary tai chi salon for local authors during the summer. He is the founder of Red Boat Opera, a portable theatrical troupe operating in the greater Bay Area.
