About the Author

Jarret Keene is a seasoned writer and editor whose work delves into the shadowy underbelly of American life, particularly the neon-lit chaos of Las Vegas. Born and raised in the desert Southwest, Keene draws from his experiences as a journalist and cultural observer to craft narratives that expose the grit, glamour, and moral ambiguities of modern urban existence. His contributions to the acclaimed Akashic Noir series highlight his knack for blending hard-boiled realism with poignant social commentary, capturing the voices of the marginalized in a city built on illusion. With a background in creative writing and a passion for uncovering hidden stories, Keene continues to influence contemporary literature through his incisive prose and unflinching gaze on human frailty.
