'I drove all the way across town to cut up this son of a bitch, but it’s these three flights of stairs that got me worried. . .' It’s meaner than a puppy juggler. It’s sharper than the knife that hot babe is aiming at your back. It’s got you so hard ’n bothered you don’t see bad news coming. It’s the best of contemporary neo-noir suspense fiction, raw and uncut from the net’s most hardcore, award-winning site. . . 'The unhinged depravity of your standard street freak is a very difficult thing to predict. . .' So snap the neck off your favorite brew, find a comfortable barstool, and dig. . .the lesbian-in-fishnets on a killing spree. The cop who breaks more laws than he defends. A pit-fight champion who’s drugged-up, revved-up and way less-than-human. Mobsters whose mercy is worse than their payback. The restless ghosts of Johnny Cash and Ol’ Blue Eyes haunting the streets. And the 'pubic-ly-challenged' dream woman who’s happy to deliver the ultimate final cut. . . 'In this game, every move is a risk. Everything you do has repercussions. . .' Step up to a meth-fueled, E-ticket ride through the wild side, where no deed goes unpunished, no heart is true. . .and evil is the only thing that’s pure. . . Hardcore Hardboiled 'You have to look hard to find two consecutive pages that don’t deal with sex or violence, but why would you want to? If you’re man enough, you’ll love this book. If you’re not, give it to your girlfriend. If she accepts it and enjoys it, never turn your back on her.' --Otto Penzler Big Daddy Thug/Todd Robinson’s writing has appeared in Danger City, Demolition, Out Of The Gutter, Pulp Pusher, Crimespree and Writers Digest’s The Years Best Writing 2003.
