Review: Nightmare Asylum & Other Deadly Delights – Sonia Kilvington
NIGHTMARE ASYLUM & OTHER DEADLY DELIGHTS Sonia Kilvington This collection of stories is shot through with a gothic ambience of darkness, disease and madness in the clinical sense. From its opening story death is always close by, reading to lay a cold hand on someone’s neck. The tales seldom wander far from the haunted corridors…
The Roots of Ripley @NoirBristol
Hop on over to Bristol Noir to read my latest musings on the mind behind Tom Ripley. I am working on a thing about Patricia Highsmith, with a little Burnt Orange Heresy in there as well. I was going to give a presentation at Captivating Criminality, but I think it will go to print instead. Possibly…
Monday Cornucopia of #Crime
Despite my dedicated devotion to idleness, I nevertheless manage to get some things done now and then (seldom what I am supposed to be getting done, of course). Today several spring into the ether at once and a few over the weekend. At Punk Noir Magazine — which you should be reading it every day!…

Some people are putting together ‘end of decade’ lists, too (never mind…
#Noirvember: Dorothy B. Hughes
In my unceasing efforts to get people to understand Dorothy Hughes as one of the godmothers of noir, I gave a presentation at the NEPCA Conference this past weekend on her early novel The Cross-Eyed Bear Murders. I actually have this lovely Dell Mystery edition with the map back (probably by Ruth Belew). Everything about this…
On the Road Again: Emerald Isle Edition
Off on travels again: first in Limerick where I will be part of a truly groovy event, Always Different, Always the Same: The Fall Symposium which includes a bunch of talks, an interview with ‘Funky’ Si Wolstencroft, author of You Can Drum But You Can’t Hide and with Imperial Wax before their concert in the…
Out Now: Urban Wyrd
Apparently it’s National Writing Day, so here’s a timely notice that some of my writing is now in print — well, an interview at least (there’s plenty of my writing to be found). It was a great opportunity to talk about how awesome Fox Spirit Books and Weird Noir are. Here’s the bumper two volume…
