Eighteen authors share dark mysteries set on the sunny Caribbean island in this anthology.
Akashic Books continues its award-winning series of original noir anthologies, launched in 2004 with
Brooklyn Noir. Each book is compromised of all-new stories, each one set in a distinct neighborhood or location within the geographic area of the book. As reflected herein, the Caribbean provides no shelter from the delicious terror of noir fiction.
Features brand-new stories by Robert Antoni, Elizabeth Nunez, Lawrence Scott, Ramabai Espinet, Shani Mootoo, Kevin Baldeosingh, Vahni Capildeo, Willi Chen, Lisa Allen-Agostini, Keith Jardim, Reena Andrea Manickchand, Tiphanie Yanique, and more.
Praise for
Trinidad Noir
"The volumes in Akashic's locale-based noir anthology series set outside North America (
Dublin Noir, etc.) offer more variety than those set in different major U.S. cities, and this one is no exception. The editors' brief but insightful introduction makes clear that the sun and sea tourist image of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago is at odds with the country's political climate of excess and corruption and an element of society afloat in drugs and guns.... The two standouts are Keith Jardim's mystical "The Jaguar" and Lawrence Scott's "Prophet," in which a series of child disappearances in a small but corrupt community builds to an appropriately bleak ending." -
