Little Deaths by Emma Flint
In 1965 Queens, a glamorous, hard-drinking single mother wakes to find her two young children missing; days later, their bodies are discovered and she becomes the prime suspect. As police and the tabloids fixate on her appearance and sexuality, a rookie reporter grows obsessed with her and begins to doubt the easy narrative he’s helping to sell. Through a haze of summer heat, prejudice, and sensationalism, the story probes how desire, motherhood, and public judgment collide, leaving truth elusive and guilt ambiguous.
