From the introduction by Robert Knightly:
"Queens is New York City's biggest borough, with the most parks and cemeteries, both major airports, Shea Stadium, the city's only racetrack, and 150 languages spoken by more foreign-born residents than live anywhere else in the U.S. No wonder Queens has attitude. And plenty of noir to go around. That's the premise of Queens Noir. I chose these nineteen authors for their solid connections to the borough, not to mention their skewed worldviews."
