Description:


It's one of the most successful – and surprising – of phenomena in the entire crime fiction genre: detectives (and protodetectives) solving crimes in earlier eras. There is now an army of historical sleuths operating from the mean streets of Ancient Rome to the Cold War era of the 1950s. And this astonishingly varied offshoot of the crime genre, as well as keeping bookshop tills ringing, is winning a slew of awards, notably the prestigious CWA Historical Dagger.


Barry Forshaw, one of the UK's leading experts on crime fiction, has written a lively, wide-ranging and immensely informed history of the genre. Historical noir began in earnest with Ellis Peters' crime-solving monk Brother Cadfael in the 1970s and Umberto Eco's The Name of the Rose in 1980, and has now taken readers to virtually every era and locale in the past.


As in Nordic Noir, Euro Noir, Brit Noir and American Noir, Forshaw has produced the perfect reader's guide to a fascinating field; every major writer is considered, often through a concentration on one or two key books, and exciting new talents are highlighted.

​​'Provides an eminently readable, interesting and informative overview of this hugely popular and varied branch of crime fiction.'—Mystery People

MY DOG'S AREN'T INTERESTED ...
Color: Red
This is a large, heavy, hard rubber toy, so is of high quality. However, it is SO heavy that neither my 60-lb. female Boxer nor my 80-lb. male Bully will 'play' with it at all. They don't even chew on it. So, although it would probably be pretty indestructible, I have no way to verify that, since neither of my dogs show any interest at all. I've tried encouraging them, by holding on one end of it and encouraging them to grab the other end, but even that didn't work. Perhaps a much larger 'giant' breed dog would enjoy it.

Fantastic toy for aggressive chewiers!
I have bought two of these for my granddaughters three dogs and they love them! In fact, I only bought one to see if they would, and all 3 played with it! One is a 5 year old pit mix, one is a 9 mo. lab mix, and ine is a 10 year old shepherd mix! Miss Lab goes through toys like melting ice, so they reall have to be well made. Not even Kong toys have made it with her! All three dogs have made it squeak, which we didn't know it did! If you have an aggressive chewier, this is the toy you need to put in the #1 spot on your list to buy!

Long lasting toy for destructive doggos
Nice toy and seems to be indestructible even with two Boston Terriers trying their best to destroy it.

Great chew toy
My dogs love this toy and we still have it a month later. That’s impressive since they are aggressive chewers.
