Money Shot

THEY THOUGHT SHE’D BE EASY. THEY THOUGHT WRONG.

It all began with the phone call asking former porn star Angel Dare to do one more movie. Before she knew it, she’d been shot and left for dead in the trunk of a car. But Angel is a survivor. And that means she’ll get to the bottom of what’s been done to her even if she has to leave a trail of bodies along the way…“Money Shot is a stunner, careening along with a wild, propulsive energy and a deliciously incendiary spirit. Laced with bravado and loaded up with knockabout charm, Christa Faust’s Hard Case debut is the literary equivalent of a gasoline cocktail.”
—Megan Abbott


“An instant pulp classic.”
—Rolling Stone


“I was sucked into the tight, juicy Money Shot, from the ripping car trunk start to the hard-pumping climax. This novel is so convincing that you want to believe Faust has been an oversexed, naked killing machine, at least once.”
—Vicki Hendricks


“Money Shot is smart, stylish, insightful, fast-paced pulp fiction with razor-sharp humor and a kick-ass heroine. Christa Faust is a super crime writer.”
—Jason Starr


“Money Shot makes most crime novels seem about as exciting as the missionary position on a Tuesday night. The results are stunning.”
—Duane Swierczynski


“Wonderfully lurid, with attitude to spare and a genuine affection for the best of hardboiled traditions. Christa Faust is THE business.”
