Thanks, Todd. I was on a few planes this week and read a collection from 2010 called "Los Angles Noir." It was good, and I especially liked a Margaret Millar story called "The People Across the Canyon." I am getting more and more drawn into reading her work.
You can do worse.
Check out this special blogging week emphasis on Millar:
