As someone who discovered hard-boiled
early but who didn't fall in love with much of it until the
past decade, I have a list of favorites that includes some
writers who write eclectically, moving in and out of noir
land.
True Confessions - John Gregory
Dunne
The Friends of Eddie Coyle - George
V. Higgins
City Primeval or Stick or Riding the
Rap or Freaky Deaky - Elmore Leonard
Always Outnumbered, Always Outgunned
- Walter Mosely
A Simple Plan - Scott Smith
(I know I cheated on 5 with the
Leonard entry, but I couldn't help myself.)
