(pb; February 2025. First book
in the Angel Dare series.)
From the back cover
“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.”
Review
Faust, with her gritty and pulp-veracious execution, penned a quick, reader-hooking read when she wrote Money—it has human warmth in unexpected places, sleaze, greed, violence, lust, gore and even a quick rape scene that’s not gratuitous and lends appropriate-but-succinct emotional weight to that last crime. Just as importantly, Faust brings together dark/wry humor, an insider’s view of the porn industry with the natural sleaze factor that makes pulp so palpable and worth reading. This is a great, if overlong novel (its last quarter could’ve been shorter, more action-intense gritty and genre effective). Worth owning, this. Followed by Chokehold.
