City of Vancouver Book Award winner! Lambda Award winner Amber Dawn's sophomore book reveals a poignant and personal landscape - the terrain of sex work, queer identity, and survivor pride. This memoir told in prose and poetry offers a frank, multifaceted portrait of the author's experience, from hustling the streets of Vancouver in the mid-90s to her present life as an outspoken feminist storyteller.

Details the lives and deaths of five women--prostitutes who advertised on Craigslist--who were victims of a serial killer still at large on Long Island.

Next time you see a girl working the street, you might be a little more frightened about the killer who could be inside her.
