Urbananonymity and alienation are key to noir, as are femmes fatales, con men, heistcrews, crooked cops, and naïve newcomers from the sticks. The sights,sounds, and equatorial heat of the big city heighten the tensions inherent intales of robbery, murder, and other desperate acts. Crime is no respecter ofclass either, with stories set in the wealthiest, gated enclaves and thepoorest of the poor shantytowns. The smell of local street food cooking overfires on every street corner is omnipresent...
