Acerca de esta escucha
This title contains mature themes, including sexual violence. Listener discretion is advised.
Haunted by the loss of her cousin, Delilah has curated a world of revenge—playing judge, jury and executioner while, you know, searching for love.
Maybe murdering gives her the control she craves. Maybe it fills the gaping hole that Cedar left when she disappeared. Maybe this rage is ancestral, dating back to all of the Indigenous women before her whose cases were closed without much of a search.
She’s never been close to getting caught, but as a virus ripples through the world, devolving men into animals, she gets a little sloppy. Now she must ask herself, is she a monster too, or is she simply taking her power back from the hands of men?

Emma is the one that got away. The only survivor of a serial killer known in the tabloids as “The Hairdresser”, because of the trophies he takes from his victims. The police aren't convinced. Nor is her husband. She never actually saw her tormentor properly, but now she recognizes him in every man she sees. Haunted by the horrifying incident and unwanted notoriety, Emma gives up her job as a psychiatrist and retreats from the outside world to recuperate at home, where it’s quiet. Where she can be anonymous and safe. Where no one can hurt her.

It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

Iris narrowly escaped her twin sister’s fate as a teen: abducted in broad daylight and long gone before she could convince the cops there was anything to investigate. With Piper presumed a runaway and no evidence to go on but Iris’s scattered memories, the case quickly goes cold. Ever since that terrible day, Iris’ search for Piper has bordered on obsession. Chasing leads across years and following clues that all seem to point to a single name, Iris does everything she can to get close to the only person who might know the answer to the question that still haunts her: where did Piper go?

For decades, Marge has been spying on her neighbors Doris and Bob, reporting every sordid thing she sees to her husband, Harold. Flamboyant Doris and boring Bob are an odd couple, but as Marge watches their comings and goings, she starts to wonder if there’s more than meets the eye. Is Doris’s latest hobby—flamenco dancing, of all things—an attempt to spice things up, or is there something more sinister going on in the house across the street? Soon enough, Marge learns that digging into her suspicions means digging herself into a very deep hole.

When crime reporter Jordan Manning leaves her hometown in Texas to take a job at a television station in Chicago, she’s one step closer to her dream: a coveted anchor chair on a national network.

Story within an essay
While this is a valid style, including so much essay and opinion in a fiction story is not a style I like. There are murders and a sci fi in this book and it still feels more like an opinion essay than fiction. Some of the main points are not really explored but just used to lightly frame an essay about sexual violence. It is a good essay and an important subject and I am not sure this is the best way to discuss it.

Excited about the concept, disappointed in the execution
As a feminist, I was looking forward to this listen and even pre-ordered it. I couldn't finish and ended up returning it because of the author's insistence on using the term "cis het". The wedging in of gender ideology completely negates the subject matter; ALL KINDS OF MALE PEOPLE commit murders and rapes, it's not somehow limited to straight men, athletic men, or men who prefer trousers. Even in a speculative fiction novel, viruses don't infect based on personal feelings. A virus can't tell if a man likes dresses or not. Male human beings do not change into female ones just because they have sex with other men or put on makeup. That's what makes them so dangerous; it's impossible to tell which ones are good.
Aside from that, the book was slow and heavy; I tried listening to it sped up and still couldn't get into it.
