Brand-new stories by: T. Jefferson Parker, Don Winslow, Luis Alberto Urrea, Gar Anthony Haywood, Gabriel R. Barillas, Maria Lima, Debra Ginsberg, Diane Clark & Astrid Bear, Ken Kuhlken, Lisa Brackmann, Cameron Pierce Hughes, Morgan Hunt, Jeffrey J. Mariotte, Martha C. Lawrence, and Taffy Cannon.
From the introduction by Maryelizabeth Hart:
“The southwestern-most metropolis in the contiguous United States, resting a mere 40 feet above sea level, tends to garner positive national attention. San Diego is home to the world-famous San Diego Zoo, Balboa Park (with its history reaching back to the 1915-1916 Panama-California Exposition), temperate climes, and a sunny reputation. It is also the home of shooter Brenda Ann 'I Don’t Like Mondays' Spencer, disgraced Congressman Randy 'Duke’ Cunningham, and San Diego County medical examiner-turned-killer Kristin Rossum...."
"The city is sometimes referred to as San Diego - Tijuana, a conurbation, with all its attendant border issues - illustrated in true noir fashion in Orson Welles’ classic Touch of Evil, adapted from Badge of Evil by Whit Masterson. A ways up the coast from the border lies the grave of Raymond Chandler, who resided in the wealthy enclave of La Jolla from 1946 to 1959; that area masquerades at “Esmerlada” in Playback, his final Philip Marlowe novel.... I hope that enjoying this intriguing collection will result in you not just thinking of Shamu (the whale of SeaWorld fame), but maybe a shamus or two, when America’s Finest City comes to mind."

Beth Montgomery seems to have the perfect life: a beautiful house in the hills above Los Angeles, a handsome, ambitious husband, and plans of starting a family. So it doesn't occur to her to worry when the news breaks of a quadruple homicide across town, a botched drug deal that leaves an undercover officer among the dead. Beth certainly would never think to tie the murders to the sudden reappearance in her life of wild, sexy Cassie Ogilvy, the estranged best friend she hasn't seen since they were college roommates.

It was the summer of 1965. Ray, Tim, and Jennifer were just three teenage friends hanging out in the campgrounds, drinking a little. But Tim and Jennifer didn't know what their friend Ray had in mind. And if they'd known, they wouldn't have thought he was serious. Then they saw what he did to the two girls at the neighboring campsite - and knew he was dead serious...Ray figured he was in the clear. Tim and Jennifer thought the worst was behind them, that the horrors were all in the past. They were wrong. The worst was yet to come.

I live my life like it’s San Diego. – Lick-G
San Diego Noir is one of the strongest collections in the entire series. The stories authentically describe and represent each neighborhood. All of the offerings are true noir with one possible exception. When listening to this audiobook, I realized that by its very nature and history, San Diego lends itself to noir. It has a mix of neighborhoods that range from extreme wealth to abject poverty very close together and it also attracts a lot of people who are transient for a wide variety of reasons. San Diego Noir exceeded my expectations. The quality of the writing is exceptional and the details about each location are great. The overall narration performance by Paul Costanzo is very good. However, in a few of the stories, I did not realize that the speaker was a woman right away which impacted my understanding. I would recommend San Diego Noir to anyone who is interested in the genre - this a great choice for first time noir readers as well as those who are steeped in noir already. I would also recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in Southern California culture and San Diego in particular.
