Sing Her Down: A Novel
Set during the heart of COVID-19, the outside population is working to maintain safety together; the inmates in the Arizona women’s prison are also focusing on survival in similar and differing ways. Spending consistent time with others has a way of showing the true self, but sometimes people are better at hiding their secrets than others. Florida and Dios are two inmates who fit these categories, and it’s at the reader’s discretion to decide which one.
Florida is a pretty, rich, Cali girl with an ugly past that she is only partly willing to admit to or completely understand. Dios is the opposite with her income bracket, location of residence, complete comprehension, and acceptance of her deeds. Obsession, greed, envy, and all the deadly sins play a part in the saga of two deadly and determined women.
Sing Her Down is a story of women and what they do with self-given labels and assumptions. The writing is gritty and raw, painting a vivid picture throughout the story. Literature with common themes would be Orange is the New Black. Fans of Western thrillers will not be disappointed with Sing Her Down.
