Overview: Groups

L.A. Noir 25 books / 12 members / 5 posts Drive west on Sunset, past the designer shops and the ageless souls who do lunch for a living.

This is some of where we'll live and who we'll live with--Marlowe, Archer, Kyd, Cole, Bosch and more. And, if we so desire, we'll check out Dave Robicheaux in New Ibera or Doc Ford on Sanibel Island or Travis on his houseboat in Florida. It doesn't stop in LA, but it all begins there.
