edit data

Chris Holcombe is the author of the Hidden Gotham series, Queer noir that readers call “Honest-to-goodness pulp fiction at its gayest and most glamorous!”

Set in the LGBTQ+ clubs of 1920s NYC, Hidden Gotham exposes and explores that fabulous yet gritty life during The Decade That Roared.
Chris’s work features engaging characters, whip-smart dialogue, and page-turning plots. He also infuses real Queer history and at least one “seriously, WTF?!” Prohibition factoid into every book. All written in an immersive, atmospheric writing style.
