'Flays the political moment. At all levels, it is a blast' Torrey Peters, author of Detransition, Baby

'An unhinged satire with 'cult hit' written all over it. Perfect for tearing through on holiday' Daily Mail

I'm a 32-year-old sex worker who just killed a politician. Please, please, please turn me into a feminist anti-hero . . .

A 32-year-old sex worker has just killed extremist political hopeful Meat Neck. Holed up in an off-the-grid cabin in the woods, she now has only two days, her wits and a high-speed internet connection to save her own life.

Her best bet is to reach out to the wildly popular feminist investigative podcast Justice for Bimbos. In a hastily-typed series of emails, the newly-minted "Murder Bimbo" explains how she was recruited and then trained by a cabal of code-named US agents to take out Meat Neck.

But, when she starts a new set of emails, this time addressed to her ex-girlfriend, we begin to realize that Murder Bimbo might not be the unsuspecting cog she claims to be.

In a time where 'truth' is more flexible than ever before - who really is Murder Bimbo? And what will she do next?

Introducing an unforgettable character for our times: hyper-articulate, totally untrustworthy, politically murky, charmingly petty, and wholly egotistical - this is . . . MURDER BIMBO.

Kritikerstimmen

A devious and outrageously entertaining satire that skewers America's surreal political landscape.
Murder Bimbo is an ingeniously structured prism: at first look it plays satirically on true crime sensationalism, at second, it flays the political moment of grift, greed, and exploitation, and finally, it contemplates the desperate and lasting things we do for love. At all levels, it is a blast.
For all the true crime aficionados, Murder Bimbo is ready and waiting . . . Told in wildly differing sections, the novel plays with an unreliable narrator whose agency, complicity, and volition shift with each version of events . . . The pacing is rip-roaring and it is impossible to tell where the narrative will go next in this thrilling ride. The novel touches on so many fascinating themes in the zeitgeist: political radicalism, true crime culture, perceptions of women and sex work, and malleability of 'truth' . . . Murder Bimbo as a protagonist is simultaneously compelling and enigmatic.
Murder Bimbo is Gone Girl for the Luigi Mangione era, and Rebecca Novack is one of our funniest and most acerbic new writers.
Brimming with acidic humour, Murder Bimbo is perfect for fans of A Certain Hunger and Boy Parts. Novak keeps you hooked as each (increasingly insane) layer to Murder Bimbo's story is unveiled. Her voice is exhilaratingly fun to read and I think Murder Bimbo is surely going to be the book everyone is talking about in 2026!
Reading Murder Bimbo feels a lot like living through the current political moment. You can't trust anyone, there are no easy answers, and everything is at once profoundly bleak and entirely hilarious. I loved it.
The pulp murder plot with heart . . . Rebecca Novack's Murder Bimbo is utterly cathartic and surely has the best title of all the books out in 2026
I was really really interested in this. This is doing something totally fascinating and unexpected from a literary point of view . . . Each of its three sections the facts are the same . . . but the circumstances change ever so slightly so you are left wondering what the actual truth is. Its like Fates and Furies by Lauren Groff. Its got a little bit of Biography of X, Trust Exercise . . . Its a romp. The sex worker is having fun and we're having fun with her . . . the politics in this novel are thought through and cogent . . . An accomplishment.
I devoured this sharp and acidic romp of a thriller, with its deliciously dark and unreliable narrator. Intriguing, compelling, beguiling - I was completely at the mercy of our slippery heroine, and loved every minute of it. Gloriously, riotously unhinged
