THE FERAL DETECTIVE

This thought-provoking audiobook does not disappoint as it explores the divide between the privileged and the impoverished in the days between Trump's surprise victory and his inauguration. Phoebe Siegler, portrayed by Zosia Mamet, is one of a kind: sarcastic, self-deprecating, hilarious, and endearing. As the story begins, Phoebe arrives in L.A. from New York City in search of her best friend's missing daughter. She hires Charles Heist--The Feral Detective--to help her. The two develop a unique relationship as they search for Arabella and find themselves in unexpected danger. Part mystery, part social commentary on a world turned upside down following the election, the audiobook explores the way our values and our communities respond to social change and what happens to those who find themselves lost or forgotten.
