The Colfax Avenue Series

The longest city street in the USA, Colfax Avenue runs some fifty miles from the Rocky Mountain foothills to the Kansas-like plains east of Denver. Once reputedly and perhaps apocryphally described in Playboy magazine as the “longest, wickedest street in America,” the avenue runs past city and state capitol buildings, along the southern edge of Downtown Denver, but most notably through eclectic stretches of neon kitsch on the metropolitan area’s flanks.

The mysteries in the Colfax Avenue Series feature security guards and salesclerks, lawyers and politicians, streetwalkers and derelicts, panhandlers and street hustlers, and even the occasional solid citizen, all doing their best to give the artery its sketchy charm.
