Acclaimed as one of the Best Books of 2021 by NPR, Harper's Bazaar, CrimeReads, Electric Literature, and Autostraddle, this thrilling story of survival and anger follows a woman whose life is turned upside down after she speaks out against workplace hostility, inadvertently becoming the leader of a cultural movement.
Eliza Bright was living her dream, working as an elite video game coder at Fancy Dog Games, when her private life suddenly became public. But is Eliza Bright a brilliant, self-taught coder bravely calling out the toxic masculinity and chauvinism that pervades her workplace and industry? Or is she a woman who needs to be destroyed to protect "the sanctity of gaming culture"? The answer depends on who you ask.
When Eliza reports an incident of workplace harassment that is quickly dismissed, she's forced to take her frustrations to a journalist, who blasts her story across the internet. Fired and doxxed, Eliza becomes a rallying figure for women across America. However, her actions have also enraged the beast that is male gamers on 4Chan and Reddit, whose collective, unreliable voice narrates the story.
Soon, Eliza finds herself in the crosshairs of the gaming community, threatened and stalked as they monitor her every move online and across New York City. As the violent power of an angry male collective descends upon everyone in Eliza's life, it becomes increasingly difficult to know who to trust, even when she's eventually taken in and protected by an under-the-radar Collective known as the Sixsterhood.
The violence escalates from the digital realm to the real world, as a vicious male super-fan known only as The Inspectre is determined to exact his revenge on behalf of men everywhere. The reader watches alongside the Sixsterhood and subreddit incels as this dramatic cat-and-mouse game plays out, leading to a violent and inevitable conclusion.
This extraordinary, unputdownable novel explores the dark recesses of the internet and male rage, as well as the fragile line between the online world and real life. It is a thrilling story of female resilience and survival, packed with a powerful feminist message.
