By night, she culls South Louisiana of unscrupulous menmonsters who think they've evaded justice, until they meet her.

Drug rep Cordelia also has a side gig. That “job” is hunting and killing bad men. This book is a great mix of dark and light. I completely agree with the Bandit Queens comp, especially in tone. I loved this one and so did my mom. It‘s out on 10/28.

CatLass007 I loved The Bandit Queens! If this is comparable it‘s definitely going on my “buy this book” list. 1mo

I enjoyed this very much. I am a sucker for books where the killer uses her powers to rid the world of criminals. I like the thought of people being punished for their bad deeds. The beginning was great. The middle portion slowed down quite a bit. After she kills a man on impulse, the book became all about disposing of the body. I feel that this book shows enough promise that I would happily read another book by this author.

This is a great novel for those of you who aren‘t squeamish as it details a woman‘s crusade to rid the world of “monsters” who prey on the vulnerable, especially young girls. Cordelia sees “smoke” behind the eyes of these men and very carefully “disposes” them, leaving no trace…until she starts dating a cop!
