In a harsh yet poetic style, Patricia Mello returns with a powerful novel for women and against the violence perpetrated against them. The protagonist, a lawyer, embarks on a journey from São Paulo to the state of Acre in Brazil to attend the trial of three young men accused of torturing and murdering an Indigenous girl. Her aim is to document the proceedings of these trials and the murders and violence inflicted upon women. She finishes her work and prepares to return home, but a journalist who had advocated for the investigation into the murder of the Indigenous girl is killed. The protagonist decides to stay and not return to São Paulo until she and her lawyer friend, who is handling the girl's case, uncover the killer. This is a novel that can be read in one sitting. Interspersed throughout each chapter are short reports written by Mello about these women: "Killed by her husband...", "Neighbors heard cries for help...", "Shot...", and so on until the end, until all these women obtain justice.
