Author: Rebecca Novack
"Murder Bimbo is Gone Girl for the Luigi Mangione era, and Rebecca Novack is one of our funniest and most acerbic new writers." --Catherine Lacey, author of Biography of X A great read for fans of Yellowface and My Sister the Serial Killer: The exhilarating origin story of sex worker turned political assassin, Murder Bimbo, is told by the Bimbo herself (and then revised, uncensored, and rewritten), in this unputdownable and wholly fresh take on truth, murder, and optics in our national moment. A thirty-two-year-old sex worker is shocked when she's approached by undercover government agents to aid them in a top-secret plot to assassinate a politician known as Meat Neck. But once the deed is done, she realizes what made her the perfect recruit: She's 100% disposable. Holed up in an off-the-grid cabin in the woods, she now has only two days, her wits, and a laptop to save her own life. Her best bet is to reach out to the wildly popular feminist investigative podcast Justice for Bimbos. In a hastily typed series of emails, the newly minted "Murder Bimbo" explains how she was recruited and then trained by a cabal of code-named US agents to take out Meat Neck. Then she opens a new email. This time, it's addressed to her ex, and the facts line up a little differently... Constructed in three increasingly unhinged acts, each a more subversive, twisted version of the story than the last, Murder Bimbo can be read as a gloriously bold literary thriller, a satirical megalomaniac's manifesto, or a raucous send-up of the political insanity we all live inside every day. Either way, it's a dead-serious announcement of an electric new voice in American literature.
