The
Willesden Herald
published this slightly magical tale in January. Boardwalk Oracle begins like this:
The faded pictures on the vending machine showed a variety of cupcakes with and without a cherry on top, with and without chocolate chips. It didn’t mean anything. Orlando knew that the images had nothing to do with the product that would be delivered. It was a game and it was very old. Read

| The pleasure of an anthology like Celluloid Crimes is to find out how the writers interpret the theme. Noir. Classic cinema and the images it printed on our retinas. There are Hollywood fixers, murders most foul, unusual detectives, even Charlie Chan ...more | |
