âMurder Bimbo is Gone Girl for the Luigi Mangione era, and Rebecca Novack is one of our funniest and most acerbic new writers.â âCatherine Lacey, author of Biography of X
An exhilarating and provocative debut perfect for fans of My Sister the Serial Killer, Yellowface, and Killing Eveâthe origin story of sex worker turned assassin turned unlikely folk hero, Murder Bimbo, as told by the Bimbo herself (and then revised, uncensored, and reconsidered).
A thirty-two-year-old sex worker is shocked when sheâs approached by undercover government agents to aid them in a top-secret plot to assassinate a politician known as âMeat Neck.â But once the deed is done, she realizes what made her the perfect recruit: Sheâs 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 âMurder Bimboâ explains how she was recruited and then trained by a cabal of code-named US agents to take out Meat Neck.
Then she starts a new series of emails. This time, theyâre addressed to her ex, and the facts line up a little differentlyâ¦
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 megalomaniacâs manifesto, or a raucous send-up of the political insanity we all live inside every day. Either way, itâs a dead-serious announcement of an electric new voice in American literature.
