3.0

As with many short story collections, varyingly hit and miss - some of them didn't feel nearly grounded enough for a noir collection, when I always feel that in noir the location is almost a character in its own right, but some of them were very interesting. Worth the read, I'd say (also I acknowledge that short stories are not my favourite genre).
