Gritty crime fiction filled with dark Irish wit from Eoin Colfer, James O. Born, Laura Lippman, and many more. The Irish master of noir Ken Bruen—and an all-star lineup of award-winning authors from both sides of the Atlantic—shine a light on the dark streets of Dublin in this collection of short fiction. Dublin Noir introduces secret corners of a fascinating city and surprise assaults on the "Celtic Tiger" of modern Irish prosperity. It explores how the Irish see themselves and how outsiders see them—and provides evidence that their storied literary reputation extends into the realm of mystery and crime writing. Brand new stories by Ken Bruen, Eoin Colfer, Jason Starr, Laura Lippman, Olen Steinhauer, Peter Spiegelman, Kevin Wignall, Jim Fusilli, John Rickards, Patrick J. Lambe, Charlie Stella, Ray Banks, James O. Born, Sarah Weinman, Pat Mullan, Gary Phillips, Craig McDonald, Duane Swierczynski, and Reed Farrel Coleman
