Publisher's summary
Not so cute and cuddly! Not a cozy mystery! Not like any crime story you have listened to.
Serena McKay, P.I., lives in a post-apocalyptic dystopian time where the rich get richer and the poor are homeless. Existence in August City is nightmarish at best and disastrously chilling at worst. Serena has suffered from devastating emotional and physical abuse but she continues to do her job in spite of it.
Fans of Jessica Jones and post-apocalyptic fiction will love Purple Kitty!
As a strong, albeit dysfunctionally-flawed private investigator, Serena uses every weapon in her arsenal to solve bloodcurdling crimes in this hard-boiled, dark-fiction, dystopian thriller series while a notorious serial killer is after her green eyes...
Can Serena catch The Cellophane Killer who slaughters women with green eyes and then wraps them up in cellophane like a sandwich for her to find? Will she catch him, or will he catch her?

Story
Serena McKay, PI, won't be your grandmother's favorite female sleuth, but she might be yours. She’s certainly not of the Jessica Fletcher ilk, and this is not a cozy mystery. It's a dark, dystopian crime story like none other, where Serena McKay kicks some serious butt. Once a detective, now a private eye, she is paid to investigate, to snoop, and to get to the bottom of things. She finds missing persons and explores child abductions.

Story
Life is hard enough for a teenage girl in 1950s suburbia without having a mother who may—or may not—be a witch. A single mother at that. Sure, she fits in with her starched dresses, string of pearls, and floral aprons. Then there are the hushed and mystical consultations with neighborhood women in distress. The unsavory, mysterious plants in the flower beds. The divined warning to steer clear of a boyfriend whose fate is certainly doomed.

In No Visible Bruises, journalist Rachel Louise Snyder gives context for what we don't know we're seeing. She frames this urgent and immersive account of the scale of domestic violence in our country around key stories that explode the common myths....

The crime of rape sizzles like a lightning strike. It pounces, flattens, destroys. A person stands whole, and in a moment of unexpected violence, that life, that body is gone. Award-winning writer and public health executive Michelle Bowdler's memoir indicts how sexual violence has been addressed for decades in our society, asking whether rape is a crime given that it is the least reported major felony, least successfully prosecuted, and fewer than three percent of rapists ever spend a day in jail.

Story
It was a bleak November in 2012 when Cari Lea Farver vanished from Omaha, Nebraska. Cari, 37, was a devoted mother, reliable employee, and loyal friend - not the type to shirk responsibilities, abandon her son, and run off on an adventure while her dying father took his last breaths. Yet, the many texts from her phone indicated she had done just that. While Cari's boyfriend, Dave Kroupa, and her supervisor were bewildered by her abrupt disappearance, they accepted the texts at face value. Her mother, Nancy Raney, however, was alarmed and reported Cari missing.

Story
Heloise considers it a blessing to be a person who seldom attracts attention. In her suburb, she's just a mom, the young widow with the forgettable job, who somehow never misses a soccer game. In the state capital, she's the redheaded lobbyist with a good cause and a mediocre track record. But in discreet hotel rooms throughout the area, she's the woman of your dreams - if you can afford the hourly fee. For more than a decade, Heloise believed she was safe, managing to keep up this rigidly compartmentalized life. But her secret life is under siege. One county over, another so-called suburban madam has been found dead in her car, an apparent suicide.

A good mystery in a strange world
This is essentially a mystery novel. There are bits of sci fi snd future society that permeates everything— but that isn’t part of the plot. And if does stray into politics and preaching of capitalism from time to time. That being said, it’s a solid mystery and has interesting peeks if a dystopian future.

Sad Crimes
I did enjoy this book as it is a dark psychological murder mystery in the future. The main character is Serena McKay ex detective now a PI. She had a horrific childhood and developed a special power which she rarely uses. She is investigating a child’s disappearance and has sad ending as well helped captured the cellophane killer a long time ago who then escapes and Malanchik get to her best friend Vega. Cannot wait for Blue Cadillac to come to audible to see what happens to Serena and Malanchik. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Can't wait for the sequel!
I really enjoyed this book. I will warn that sensitive subjects are a main theme of the book, including sexual abuse of children. The main character is intriguing and I am excited to see where her story continues. I gave the performance only 4 stars because she has a tendency to have out of place pauses throughout the novel, otherwise well deserving of the 5 stars overall.

interesting, captivating, addictive!
The narrator for this book was an excellent choice. She does a wonderful job of bringing the characters to life. She does a wonderful job with not only all voices for characters, but the male voices as well. She really puts the reader in every scene. Serena isn’t your average private investigator. She has a little something extra, that sounds disturbing and extremely interesting. she did not start out being a private investigator, but difficult work situations pushed her in that direction. She did not have the easiest of childhood, but through it all she managed to overcome. You won’t believe what position she finds herself in, trying to save her life, in the life of a missing child! However, this book definitely ends with a major cliffhanger. I can’t wait to read the next book in this series. You will feel the same! insertion point at end

I tried
I tried to like it. First off it, might have, been better with, a different, narrator. The constant pauses made it very difficult to listen to. Second, the description said "if you like Jessica Jones" and they are simular in ways ( I won't spoil it) it kind of feels like a knock off. It's almost half way through the book before you start learning anything about the case, the first half is constant flashback back story on the main character.

Would be better with different narrator
I've not read anything quite like this dystopian crime fiction. It's a pretty good story, but Kim Rossi's narration is tough to listen to. She puts far too many pauses where they don't belong and her inflection is odd. Her performance is a real distraction from the story. Although the main investigation is solved, there is one significant thread that is left hanging as a setup for the next book, a practice I find frustrating.
