Toronto is located on the northwestern shore of Lake Ontario and has a population of 2,503,281 (or about 3,113,149 U.S.). Comprised of wetlands, concrete parts, and futon stores, the city is home to some of Canada’s most notorious criminals.
A multicultural nexus, Toronto’s Indian, Portuguese, African, Italian, and Chinese neighborhoods are backdrops for Toronto Noir’s corrosive exposes. In tales of stressed Beaches yuppies, jazz musicians stuck in the limbic Humber Loop, and high-rollers committing lurid acts in Rosedale mansions, sixteen of the city’s best literary and crime fiction writers lay bare the scars of a city that loves to hate itself.
