Kitten: Diary of a Runaway

Abandoned by her adoptive family, brutalized, and forgotten, a young runaway learns what it takes to survive in a world that has never been safe. What begins as a cry for help becomes something far more terrifying as she transforms from a victim into one of the most prolific serial killers the city has ever known.

Told in the unfiltered voice of a woman stripped of morality, identity, and humanity, Kitten is a raw and disturbing meditation on trauma, exploitation, and the lies we are led to believe.

Neo-noir writer An Wo Long completes his Neo-Noir Diaries Trilogy with an unsettling view into the mind of a runaway, exploring the darkest recesses of the human psyche and society.

This is not a story for the faint of heart. With stark depictions of abuse and emotional torment, Kitten is a brutal meditation on what remains when society’s safety nets fail entirely.

Disturbingly vulnerable, morally complex, and terrifying in its plausibility, Kitten is an unforgettable literary experience with an ending that leaves you distrustful of your own judgments.

Gritty as Go Ask Alice, emotionally devastating as Push, and as morally ambiguous as American Psycho.

Kitten is for readers of transgressive fiction who understand that some stories must be disturbing to be authentic. It’s not “entertainment.” It’s a challenge.
