The authors note told a story of a girl growing up in a town that was overrun with serial killers at the time she was growing up. That fear and restlessness is spun so well into the following story that I almost would have thought it was an autobiography.

“in the future, you might not want to wear so much makeup. You don’t want to attract the wrong kind of attention.” Maureen’s shoulders tightened. “Why don’t you tell them to stop looking instead of us to stop shining?”

The women in this story were flawed and real and the men were terrifying and also unfortunately seemed real. Except for Claude-rhymes-with-howdy
