What to expect

'These Women is full of resilient and undaunted characters that society often doesn't give a second look to. But Ivy Pochoda does and in these pages she gives us the small story that grows so large in meaning and emotion as to transcend genre. It tells us how to look at ourselves and at what is important.' Michael Connelly
The dancer. The mother. The cop. The artist. The wife.
These women live by countless unspoken rules. How to dress; who to trust; which streets are safe and which are not. The rules grow out of a kaleidoscope of fear, anguish, power, loss and hope. Maybe it is only these rules which keep them alive.
When their neighbourhood is rocked by two murders, the careful existence these women have built for themselves begins to crumble.
'Pochoda turns grief, suffering and loss into art, crafting a literary thriller that is no less compelling for its deep emotional resonance.' Vogue
Named a Most Anticipated Novel for 2020 by
* The Washington Post * Entertainment Weekly * Vulture * LitHub * Crime Reads * Book Riot *
What readers are saying:
'Gritty and addicting.'
'The kind of storytelling you hope to find in your movie theaters one day.'
'Pochoda weaves a mystery that not only had me turning the page, but dwelling on lines of prose.'
'This book was far from what I was expecting it to be . . . I couldn't tear myself away.'
'I devoured it in one sitting . . . I LOVED IT.'
'This is one of those books that tears into you and doesn't let you go - even after you read the last page.'
