      The first book in this series was about a man who dresses as a woman to kill women.

      No joke here. How do I make this any more absurd than it already is?

      Robert Galbraith

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Galbraith_Heath

      Heath experimented with gay conversion therapy, and claimed to have successfully converted a homosexual patient, labeled in his paper as Patient B-19. The patient, who had been arrested for marijuana possession, was implanted with electrodes into the septal region (associated with feelings of pleasure), and many other parts of his brain. The septal electrodes were then stimulated while he was shown heterosexual pornographic material. The patient was later encouraged to have intercourse with a sex worker recruited for the study. As a result, Heath claimed the patient was successfully converted to heterosexuality. This research would be deemed unethical today for a variety of reasons. The patient was recruited for the study while under legal duress, and further implications for the patient’s well-being, including indications that electrode stimulation was addictive, were not considered

      She chose to be this person. Incredible.

          she made being a werewolf a metaphor for aids, which is already fucked up given the inherently predatory nature of werewolves, but at least the first book where that’s a thing features a nice guy who gets kicked out of his job unjustly because he’s actually safe around kids. but then she made the second of the 2 named werewolves in the series a very literal child predator
