Description
In 1989, punk-rock girl "Golden" Dawn has crafted an outsider's life combining the philosophies of Communism and Aleister Crowley's black magic. One fateful day she finds the dead body of her mentor in both politics and magick shot in the head, seemingly a suicide. But Dawn knows there's more going on than the cops could ever hope to find. In setting out to find the murderer herself, she will encounter dark and twisted truths for which nothing could have prepared her.Tags

A quick -- in wits and duration -- mystery featuring a self-possessed heroine with a voice that seems genuinely immersed in 80s subculture. Filled with Mamatas' usual observations and sly humor.
