South Central noir
(Book)
"Within these pages youll find stories of those walking the straight and narrow, until something untoward happens. Maybe its someone taking a step out of line, getting caught up in circumstances spiraling out of their control. Maybe theyre planning the grift, the grab . . . whatever it is to finally put them over. Other times the steps they take are to get themselves or people they care about out from under. Youll find the offerings in these pages are a rich mix of tone, tales told of hope, survival, revenge, and triumph. Excursions beyond the headlines and the hype. The settings herein reflect South Central today or chronicle its colorful past, such as the days of the jazz joints along Central Avenue . . . From South Park to East Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, from the borderlands of Watts to the one time Southern Pacific railroad tracks paralleling Slauson Avenue, take a tour of a section of Los Angeles that may be unfamiliar to you but you will get to know, at least a little, by the time you finish reading this entertaining and engaging anthology."--Back cover.
