[Hogtown Noir 01] • Port Lands

A hardened sleuth plumbs the darkest corners of the city—and his mind—in this existential modern noir.

Winter. 2018. William Keele’s back in town and he’s barely getting by. Rents are up and wages are down and dirty cops are a dime a dozen. So when a mysterious lawyer makes him an offer he can’t refuse—he doesn’t.

The job seemed find the kid, call the number, get the cash. But easy money always has a price. Keele wanders into a vast conspiracy, a secret world of weird sex and designer drugs funded by foreign wealth and corrupt elites. A world he thought he left behind.

Can Keele live long enough to finish the job ? Find out now in Tod Molloy’s Port Lands.

Infused with satire and symbolism, Port Lands is a violent journey through the underworld, appropriate for fans of Jim Thompson, James Sallis, Chuck Palahniuk or Thomas Pynchon.
