Starts with a gruesome scene of violence against women. Then moves in to other violence, including lots of using particularly foul female-centric curses against women. 

Nope.

5.0

I love me a good good murder mystery with women characters who refuse to conform to patriarchal standards. Really enjoyed the pacing, had a couple red herrings, and had many Bones/CSI moments. I don't really understand why Kendra had to be considered a frankenbaby or what have you, I guess to explain her extensive skillset and genetics? Seems a bit fantastic but I mean, it is fiction.
