Everyday Noir (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781468138979)

Everyday Noir is a collection of parodies written in the hard-boiled and cynical style of detective fiction set in mundane, everyday surroundings. Instead of stakeouts and police stations, the author finds evil lurking at Girl Scout cookie sales, suburban soccer fields, faculty lounges, law firm pro bono programs--even spelling bees. Noir is where you find it. They may be fiction, but in this crazy, mixed-up world, that's about as close as any of us will ever come to the truth. Which isn't very close.
