Sobre este áudio
A twisty, darkly seductive anti-hero origin story, starring a teenage killer whose trial in the Wild West is upended when her first victim, her husband, arrives alive with a story to tell.
Summer 1886—When nineteen-year-old Belle King turns herself in for murder, the last thing she expects to see is her abusive husband Reginald standing outside her Dodge City jail cell, impossibly alive. He’s there to take her back, but Belle is not going without a fight. Reginald was the first man she ever meant to kill, but certainly not the last . . .
Now, while there are still bars between them, Belle is forced to resort to all the tricks in her arsenal to prevent her husband from ever being in control of her again. But in the 1880s, the last soul anyone will believe is a girl—even when she confesses to her own crimes.
With the seductive horror of a fairy tale, Lady or the Tiger is the dark, twisty story of how one mountain girl from Kentucky became the wickedest woman in the Wild West and an ode to girls with tigers in their hearts who can save themselves.
©2025 Heather M. Herrman (P)2025 Listening LibraryResumo da Crítica
★ “Herrman has created a rare kind of book: a twist-filled murder mystery dressed up in leather boots, spurs, and a cowboy hat. . . The writing is compelling and visceral, with a multitude of colorful, complex characters, including the ferocious, canny protagonist. For readers who enjoy a propulsive narrative, this is a special one indeed."—Booklist, starred review
“An evocative, ferocious exploration of darkness and truth—this one will come at you with a roar and stay with you long after the final page.”—Kerri Maniscalco, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Stalking Jack the Ripper
“Herrman’s sophisticated exploration of the impact of men’s abuse of power are chilling . . . but Belle’s individual strength and continued resistance prove inspirational. The nonlinear timeline enhances the larger-than-life vignettes that are reminiscent of tall tales, maintaining a quick pace and adding tension to each dramatic beat. . . Intense hardship and adventure compellingly intertwine in this Old West feminist journey.”—Kirkus
