She wildly squeezed the trigger three times in rapid succession. The gunshots rang out like thunder, the flashes of light illuminating the dark street below. For a brief moment, everything seemed to freeze, the laughter silenced by the echoing sound of gunfire.



Prepare to embark on an unforgettable journey into the heart of darkness with The Dark Corners of Falls City by Montana Carr. This gripping and atmospheric queer novel unravels a tale of crime, corruption, addiction, sex and redemption in the sprawling metropolis of Falls City, where shadows cast long, and secrets fester in the darkest alleys.


In this compelling narrative, we once again Marti Starova, a complex and enigmatic protagonist. Formerly a homicide detective, she now navigates the treacherous underbelly of the city as a private investigator. Carr paints a vivid and gritty portrait of Marti's life, a relentless quest for truth, sex, and drugs in a city overwhelmed by crime and decay.


Marti's character is a study in contrasts - a tough, hard-edged detective struggling to maintain control over her life, while paradoxically battling her own demons. She grapples with a dark past, an unrelenting addiction to both women and the narcotic "Shadow," and a city infested with corruption. Marti's desperation is palpable as she clings to the hope of redemption.


The novel unfolds in a series of interconnected chapters, each revealing another layer of Falls City's seedy underbelly. Carr's storytelling prowess shines as she immerses the reader in Marti's turbulent world. From a gritty encounter with a group of rowdy troublemakers outside her apartment to a high-stakes showdown with corrupt law enforcement, every chapter crackles with tension and intrigue.


The Dark Corners of Falls City is not just a thriller but a profound character study. Carr's storytelling delves into the complexities of the human spirit, resilience, and the ability to find light in the darkest places. As Marti's past collides with her present, the reader is offered a glimpse into the inner turmoil of a character who must confront her own demons before she can save her city.


Montana Carr's skillful writing and vivid prose transport readers into the gritty, rain-soaked streets of Falls City, where danger lurks around every corner. This is a tale of redemption, where the characters' struggles mirror the struggles of a city itself.


For those who appreciate dark, suspenseful narratives with richly drawn characters, The Dark Corners of Falls City is an unmissable journey into the heart of urban noir. Montana Carr's masterful storytelling will keep readers on the edge of their seats from the first page to the last, making this a must-read for fans of crime fiction, erotica and psychological thrillers.
