Go Down Hard by Craig Faustus Buck

GO DOWN HARD is a hard-boiled, character-driven mystery that takes readers on a noir romp through the worlds of aging rock-and-rollers, live Internet sex shows, abusive psychiatrists, Slavic mobsters, child molesters, emotional betrayal, deceit, arson, murder and estate planning. As an unpublished MS, it was awarded First Runner Up for the Claymore Award at Killer Nashville. (Brash Books, May 5, 2015)

“A spirited mix of noir homage and hard-boiled spoof, and Craig Faustus Buck gets the proportions just right. Sexy, tough and comic — and often all three at once.”
T. Jefferson Parker, New York Times bestselling author of “Laguna Heat” and “The Full Measure”

“A pleasure. Buck gives us a wisecracking freelance writer, a delectable female cop, detestable bad guys, and a plot with excitement that builds to the end.”
Thomas Perry, New York Times bestselling author of “Butcher’s Boy” and “A String of Beads”

GO DOWN HARD is available from Amazon.
