You know her name, but you'll never know her secrets.

The glitz and gritty glamour of 1970s New York City hide a much more sinister reality for the women who live there, but Ginger Daughtry and her two beloved roommates refuse to be victims. They are living the dream, embracing all the city has to offer—dancing under the glow of the disco ball, discovering them­selves and what they want out of life—until one of them is assaulted. When the cops do nothing, they take matters into their own hands, and Lady X is born. What starts as a little vandalism soon escalates to something far more dangerous. After a body is found fallen—or pushed—from five stories high, all eyes are on Lady X. But she’s vanished into thin air.

In modern day Los Angeles, Margot Cooper wants nothing more than to run away from the world—and the paparazzi—after it’s very publicly revealed that her actor husband has betrayed her. While hiding in her childhood home with her sister and teenage daughter, she discovers a box full of old clippings in the attic all about Lady X, a mysterious vigilante who exposed and vandalized terrible men through­out New York City in the summer of 1977, including a blurry newspaper photo that stops her in her tracks.

Suddenly the consequences of the past race to meet Margot as she contends with her own future in this powerful and propulsive novel.

批評家のレビュー

"The perfect book for any woman who has been told by a man to smile, who's been asked why she can't take a joke, who has to shoulder the responsibility for a man's disreputable actions. An unputdownable paean to female rage and retribution." —Jodi Picoult

"In this powder keg of a novel, Fader takes the reader on a literary ride through some of the worst—and most universal—experiences of womanhood. Lady X is the outlet for feminist rage that we all need right now. This is incendiary, cathartic, and deeply satisfying." —Heather Marshall, national bestselling author of Liberty Street

"I am OBSESSED. This book is going to become my whole personality." —Sarah MacLean, New York Times bestselling author of These Summer Storms

"An honest, unflinching story of female rage and the persistence of legends. Molly Fader's vibrant characters and singing prose will grip you from the first page, and as you travel from modern Hollywood to 1970s New York, it feels as seamless and compelling as a movie. This is a truly powerful reading experience." —Simone St. James, New York Times bestselling author of Murder Road

"Bold, atmospheric, and furious, this explosive thrill ride of a book spans the country, the last four decades, and the breadth of female rage. This is a smart, cathartic book for right exactly now, and I could not put it down." —Joshilyn Jackson, New York Times bestselling author of Missing Sister

"This intense yet thoughtful novel pulses with mystery and secrets, and its two time periods are perfectly detailed. Fader explores women's rage across generations." Booklist, starred review
