The first Angel Dare novel, MONEY SHOT, earned universal acclaim: finalist for the Edgar, Anthony and Barry Awards, won the Crimespree Award and chosen by fans as their favorite Hard Case Crime title of all time. Angel’s story continued in CHOKE HOLD and – after almost 15 years – it comes to a blazing conclusion in THE GET OFF.

WILL THE CHANCE FOR A NEW LIFE BE ANGEL’S LAST SHOT?

Tagged as a cop killer when a mission of vengeance goes wrong, Angel Dare finds herself on the run, with an unexpected burden: she’s pregnant. Her desperate flight takes Angel across the American west, where cattle barons lock horns with rodeo bullfighters and life can end suddenly and brutally. A renegade couple living off the grid near the border might offer a chance of escape – but can Angel reach them in time…?
“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




Praise 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
