Consensual Violence

Description

Some people say pro wrestling is fake–Krysten Moore knows better.

Hungry for a better life, shy, dog-loving Krysten reinvents herself as a fierce lucha libre star in Mexico. In the gym, she trains against her inner demons and physical blows to distance herself from weakness. But when her trusted trainer–once a wrestling legend–betrays her with brutal violence, her dream career becomes a fight for survival against the corruption of prevailing champions. From the shadows of El Paso to the blood-soaked rings of Juarez, Krysten’s quest for vengeance explodes into a bloodthirsty war against corrupt promoters, cartel killers, and anyone complicit in her abuse. Armed with grit, female rage, and her wrestling persona, she delivers her own brand of vigilante justice–one bone-crushing blow at a time. Consensual Violence is a relentless tale of revenge, redemption, and the dark underbelly of lucha libre, from Del James, author of The Language of Fear.
