Get Off

Christa Faust grew up in the Bronx and Hell’s Kitchen, spending most of her teen years on endless subway rides, cutting school, and writing. She sold her first short story when she moved to Los Angeles in the early ‘90s, and still considers herself an expat rather than a native. She’s an avid reader of vintage paperbacks, a film noir enthusiast and a tattooed lady who writes hardboiled crime fiction.

“Supremely satisfying… an outstanding conclusion… a remarkable final act for a top-shelf series.”—Publishers Weekly“Kneel before the Queen of Noir: Christa Faust is back, to show us how it’s done. Angel Dare’s sunset ride is brutal, propulsive, and heartrending, and the dust she kicks up will stick in your teeth long after you’ve finished.” —Rob Hart, author of Assassins Anonymous“A literal tour de force for Christa Faust. I think she outdid herself with this third, final entry in the Angel Dare series. Faust's always been a blisteringly great writer, with an ability to wield sharp prose to impressive, devastating effect.”—Tony Healey, author of the Harper & Lane series“If you enjoy smart talking, action-oriented women protagonists, this is the book for you.”—Debbi Mack, New York Times bestselling author“An action-packed racecar that is going at breakneck speed… a fitting conclusion.”—Pulp Crime & Mystery Books“The Get Off is loaded with action, written at a nearly relentless place.”—Cemetery Dance“The femme fatale is given agency, the male fantasy stripped away to reveal the truth beneath, in all its beauty and ugliness.”—Crime Fiction Lover“The Get Off is a riotous example of Pulp Crime fiction, full of bullets, but also pathos.”—Sfbook.com“If you’ve not read Christa, and love noir, you really can’t go wrong with reading this trilogy. It really is fantastic.”—Gregwritesblog.com“A great story though from the first page and one I'd strongly recommend.”—Blue Book Ballon blogPraise for Money Shot“An instant pulp classic.”—Rolling Stone“Christa Faust’s Money Shot has to be an early contender for mystery debut of the year... Money Shot has no peer in hardboiled writing about the sex industry.”—Bloomberg News“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, author of You Will Know Me
