\n\u00a0 “You\u2019d see young troops come back from the front lines and their faces\u2019d still be young. But not their eyes, on account of what they\u2019d seen.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Lawrence Block<\/a> is an award-winning crime fiction writer with the rare distinction of having been inducted as a Grand Master by the Mystery Writers of America<\/a> – essentially a hall of fame of suspense writers where he is joined by the elite company of such legends as Agatha Christie, James M.\u00a0Cain, Elmore Leonard and Stephen King.<\/p>\n

We are honored to have Mr. Block as one of the authors contributing to the L.A.\u00a0Noire:\u00a0The Collected Stories<\/a> series of short fiction inspired by the game – and today, we present his original entry, “See the Woman<\/a>” – a poignant and painful look at domestic abuse and its harrowing aftermath as a retired L.A.\u00a0cop recounts the story that has haunted and colored his life.<\/p>\n

“See the Woman” debuts today exclusively at MulhollandBooks.com<\/a>\u00a0– the official website of our publishing partner on L.A.\u00a0Noire:\u00a0The Collected Stories – and look for it to be added to rockstargames.com\/lanoire\/stories<\/a> in downloadable PDF\u00a0and online reader formats as well very soon.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Expect more short story releases from the collection through next week.<\/p>\n

L.A. Noire: The Collected Stories will be available as a complete anthology at all major eBook retailers\u00a0on June 6th\u00a0(you can pre-order it now via Amazon<\/a>, iTunes<\/a>, and Barnes&Noble<\/a>).<\/p>\n
