Noir Detective
The Corpse in the Filing Cabinet
In your shabby office, a woman in a red dress slides a photo across your desk—her husband's missing, but the man in the picture is already lying dead in your filing cabinet.
Scene
A shabby private detective's office on the second floor of a rundown building. The room smells of stale coffee and desperation. A dusty fan wobbles on a filing cabinet that contains a very fresh corpse. Neon light from the street below pulses through half-closed blinds, casting shifting red patterns across the woman in red and the photo she just slid across your desk. • 1940s noir / hardboiled detective era
