Join us for a walk on the wiiiiild side of crime fiction. We'll tour through the hardboiled classics of Chandler, Cain and Hammett; acquaint ourselves with contemporary masters like Ellroy and Mosley; international noir in translation; the fractured psyches of Thompson and Highsmith; even genre-bending experiments in horror and science-fiction!
We've got something to satisfy any and all tastes for all you darkly depraved delinquents.
This month we'll discuss a Sherlock Holmes classic, Sir Arthor Conan Doyle's A Study in Scarlet.
When Dr. John Watson takes lodgings in Baker Street with the quirky consulting detective Sherlock Holmes, they are both quickly drawn into a mysterious case that has left Scotland Yard baffled. A man is found dead in a south London house, his face a mask of horror, but there are no signs of violence. Meanwhile a mysterious word has been written in blood on the wall and through Sherlock Holmes’ observations and deductions, they uncover a tragic tale of love and revenge.
