LA Noire is a collection of crime stories written in the older style of police-detective novels and pulp fiction. These stories were compiled by Rockstar Games as they were preparing for production of a new video game. The stories were entertaining and some were thought provoking. My favorite was The Black Dahlia and White Rose, a story dealing with Marilyn Monroe and  Elizabeth Short, the Black Dahlia.L A Noire is an enjoyable collection of crime stories written by some of the best crime writers in a hard boiled style reminiscent of Raymond Chandler and other hard boiled authors.
