"As sh@# as the criminal justice system can be," she narrowed her eyes into slits, "it's not my place to mete out whatever punishment is due."
This is a well written and interesting book about men who hate and abuse women and how each woman handles it differently. It's told from multiple POV - almost too many at first. It's told from a few abusive men's POV, a few police and criminal pathologist POV and quite a few victim POV. You go through days of drinking and sex and meandering through life and abusing everyone around them (or trying to hold them back). It's an abnormally small amount of people and they all feel connected.
I didn't feel like the 'who done it wasn't a huge surprise as the author had done a good job of dropping hints and info along the way but the violence and the awful hate for women was pretty rough to read. It was a pretty good but tough read.
