What I saw somewhere or other was that the original story was in an anthology called Damn Near Dead. Not available as an e-book, though.

I was also looking at the Hell of a Woman anthology, but again, no e-book.

(I'm trying really hard not to add any more paper books!)

Just thought of another you might well dig - the magnificent Christa Faust. Dunno if Money Shot's in e-format (her publishers were attempting to recreate the glory days of pulp fiction right down to the painted covers) but for modern noir with a unique and tough protagonist, Faust is spot on.

Oh dear, you really shouldn't get me started reccomending crime authors...
Thanks--I'll have a look at Faust. Recommendations are most welcome! What about Vicky Hendricks--any opinion on her stuff?
