Crash Deluxe is a 2005 cyberpunk novel by science fiction author Marianne de Pierres and is the third and final Parrish Plessis Novel. [1] [2] In 2005, it was nominated for the Aurealis Award for Best Science Fiction Novel. [3]
Parrish Plessis, sometime coup leader, paid assassin and ex-bodyguard, is finding life tough. Betrayed by the enigmatic Loyl Daac, and still under blood debt to the deadly Cabal Coomera, Parrish is trying to hold together the little empire she's inherited in the Tert, live up to the expectations of the many strays and waifs she's accumulated, and attempt to flush the high-tech parasite from her system before she becomes something so much less than human. Not an ideal lifestyle, Parrish would be the first to admit, but she can make everything alright again if she can manage just one little task. Bring down the media.
