Where the Busses Don't Run

Noir Shots

The third entry in the Noir Shots series of short noir stories is a deeply moving and emotionally powerful tale of big city despair. Two children growing up together are at the whims of a father who might be far more than just a mean drunkard. As they grow closer, forming a bond borne of circumstance and desperation, their lives spiral toward an act of violence that almost seems fated. Beginning at the end, and then revealing how it got there through the haunted memories of the young man, a heartbreaking story emerges. * This ceaselessly somber noir contains mature themes and sensitive subject matter unsuitable for younger audiences. *
