Sixteen storytellers shed light on the darkness that lurks in the California city in this fun collection of crime tales.

Akashic Books continues its award-winning series of original noir anthologies, launched in 2004 with Brooklyn Noir. Each book comprises all-new stories, each one set in a distinct neighborhood or location within the respective city.

With stories by: Barry Gifford, Jim Nisbet, Lexi Pandell, Lucy Jane Bledsoe, Mara Faye Lethem, Thomas Burchfield, Shanthi Sekaran, Nick Mamatas, Kimn Neilson, Jason S. Ridler, Susan Dunlap, J.M. Curet, Summer Brenner, Michael David Lukas, Aya de León, and Owen Hill.

Praise for Berkeley Noir "Each story evokes the dark side of a Berkeley neighborhood and pays tribute both to the city's history as a haven for outcasts and as a literary metropolis. If you race through it, consider picking up San Francisco Noir and Oakland Noir." —Diablo Magazine, a Top Ticket choice "In "Lucky Day," Thomas Burchfield reveals the evil that can come when a well-meaning aide breaks his boss's cardinal rule never to allow patrons into the library early. A worried mom from Holloway wangles her son a prized place in the Berkeley school district in Aya de León's "Frederick Douglass Elementary." . . . . J.M. Curet's "Wifebeater Tank Top," the tale with the firmest criminal pedigree, is the most violent, but its poetic language and come-from-nowhere ending make it the best." —Kirkus Reviews "The 16 stories set in Berkeley, Calif., in this above average Akashic noir anthology offer little actual noir but a heaping helping of crime, with almost every entry featuring at least a murder or kidnapping . . . . Readers will be glad that many of these tales are fun in a way that traditional noir isn't." —Publishers Weekly
