From publisher blurb:
So lemme get this straight: you birds and dames are sittin’ around bored because no work is comin’ your way? Then get out and make some work! Just download yourself a copy of Building the Shadows: A Film Noir Mission Generator, grab some six-sided freckled cubes and start rollin’ on the tables. In just a few minutes, you could be puttin’ fresh slugs in your Roscoes and headin’ out on any one of over 90,000 different jobs, with no two jobs going the same way twice. And don’t let the cover make you into a patsy — it says it’s for Midnight Boulevard, but you can use it with any film noir game. You can even use it in other genres if you tinker with it right, savvy?
So now you know what to do. Building the Shadows lets you make the job; how it does down is up to you and your pals. Get outta here before some hatchetmen come and plug you!
