Life after crime from the International Booker-shortlisted author ofElena Knows
Fifteen years after killing her husband’s lover, Ins is fresh out of prison and trying to put together a new life. Her old friend Manca is out now too, and they’ve started a business FFF, or Females, Fumigation, and Flies dedicated to pest control and private investigation, by women, for women. But Seora Bonar, one of their clients, wants Ins to do more than kill bugs she wants her expertise, and her criminal past, to help her kill her husband’s lover, too.Crimes againstwomen versus crimes by women; culpability, fallibility, and our responsibilities to each other – this is Pieiro at her wry, earthy best, alive to all the ways we shape ourselves to be understandable, to be understood, by family and love and other hostile forces.
