RaveThe San Antonio Express-NewsIt’s a fun story and, as Moore admits, not nearly as dark or desperate as he originally intended. Lucky for us, because we get plenty of Moore’s trademark linguistic high jinks, oddball characters and a cartwheeling plot in danger of spinning out of control before miraculously sticking the landing. If you like your crime fiction heavy, this book may not be for you. But as a light read, Noir is perfect.
