Journalist Crys Nguyen puts her life on the line while chasing down a story – while also trying to find her missing friend’s whereabouts – in Africa, where he disappeared a month earlier while researching the illegal rhino horn trade.
Sunshine Noir is an anthology edited by Annamaria Alfieri and Michael Stanley. In these stories, seventeen writers from across the world write about the seedy underbelly of sunny places. Stories are set in the Dominican Republic, the Sonoran Desert of Arizona, chic Mykonos, Seville at midnight, and on the morning beachfront of Ghana where a man has revenge on his mind. Follow an NGO worker kidnapped in Yemen, an engineer repairing a dam in turmoil-torn Ethiopia, a foolish young Englishman hitchhiking across the Sahara. Stories will also take you to historic Istanbul and Mombasa, and you can learn the secrets of family conflicts in Singapore, in Puerto Rico, in New Orleans.
