"Charlie Fox came on strong in Zoë Sharp's
early novels but, like a lot of tough girls,
softened up with time. Now, thanks to an
enterprising small press, we can catch Charlie in
the rough. Originally published in 2001, KILLER
INSTINCT (Busted Flush, paper, $15) finds this
army-trained martial-arts expert on her first job,
working security for a club in an English seaside
town. Charlie looks like a made-for-TV model, with
her red hair and motorcycle leathers, but Sharp
means business. The bloody bar fights are bloody
brilliant, and Charlie's skills are both formidable
and for real."
