Modern Noir Romances
Tough Love
Twelve stories about men and women who don’t walk away clean. Desire, betrayal, miscalculation — each one leaves a mark.
These are not puzzles. They are collisions.
Urban Noir
Cantina Psalms
A novel of San Francisco — its politics, its shadows, and the people who move between them. Tom Gresham doesn’t go looking for trouble. It recognizes him.
About Thomas Shess
Now I write fiction.
I’ve spent most of my life around stories that didn’t behave — newsrooms, cities that never quite told the truth, people who saved the best parts for last. Most are dead never knowing what hit them. Salutos and carpe diem.
Since 2011, I also publish a daily current events, retro arts and literary blog at PillartoPost.org
