And plenty of noir to go around. That’s the premise of \u003ci\u003eQueens Noir\u003c\/i\u003e. I chose these nineteen authors for their solid connections to the borough, not to mention their skewed worldviews.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eROBERT KNIGHTLY\u003c\/b\u003e relocated from Manhattan to Jackson Heights, Queens in 1994 (marriage and a bigger apartment). He spent his first forty-four years in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, just a hop, skip, and a jump over the Pulaski Bridge spanning Newtown Creek between Greenpoint and Long Island City, Queens. He worked as a criminal trial lawyer for the Legal Aid Society in the Queens Criminal Court. Once upon a time, he was a New York City policeman, but that was in big, bad Brooklyn. He now lives in Albany, NY, and is the editor of \u003ci\u003eQueens Noir.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n                    \n                \n            \u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Best Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":46556592341153,"sku":"BBSNIJ9781933354408","price":24.65,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0525\/2084\/5473\/files\/9781933354408.jpg?v=1781822607","url":"https:\/\/www.bestbookstore.ca\/products\/queens-noir-paperback-by-robert-knightly","provider":"Best Book Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
