New York City - 1926.
For those intrigued by the Noire style of ''Ghosts of Manhattan'', Dashiel Hammett was the master of grim, gritty detective tales, specifically ''The Thin Man'', and [[The Return of the Thin Man by Dashiell Hammett|The Return of the Thin Man]].
And if you're particularly intrigued by the monsters and supernatural elements glimpsed in the book, pick up some [[:Category:H P Lovecraft|HP Lovecraft]]. It's all completely mad, very dark and absolutely marvellous. [[George Mann's Ghost Series in Chronological Order]]
