The Woman Has Style

Before I dive into Dave Zeltserman (thank you again, Corey), I thought I'd mention what I'll be reading next (after I finish the vintage paperback adaptation of Walter Hill's screenplay of the very underrated Hickey & Boggs film, that is). In my search for something to scratch my pulp noir itch (sorry, but hydrocortisone doesn't help), I found more than a few lists with Money Shot on them. Then I read about the author, Christa Faust, and that sealed it.

From the backcover of Money Shot:

"... is the author of numerous crime and horror novels including Hoodtown, Triads, and Control Freak. She has also worked as a filmmaker, a model, and a Time Square peep show girl. Film director Quentin Tarantino once said, "Christa Faust is a Veronica in a world of Betties."

And from her Twitter bio:

"Writer. Fetishist. Pulp Enthusiast."

And anyone who can mention Mickey Spillane and Donald Westlake in the same answer to a question at a book launch party, she is someone I gotta read:
