Description

A multicultural nexus, Toronto's Indian, Portuguese, African, Italian and Chinese neighbourhoods are backdrops for Toronto Noir's corrosive exposes. In tales of stressed Beaches yuppies, jazz musicians stuck in the limbic Humber Loop and high-rollers committing lurid acts in Rosedale mansions, 16 of the city's best literary crime fiction writers lay bare the scars of a city that loves to hate itself.
