    Synopsis

    In a world run by gangsters, the only way to survive is to learn what it means to ride or die.

    Beatrix is the ultimate gangster's girlfriend, living through cycles of violence and devotion with Jason, British Columbia's most notorious gangster. Jason hunts her when she runs. Rival gangs smash down her doors. Assassins shoot over her in parking lots.

    Beatrix knows she needs to run if she wants to live, but escape means transformation from prey to predator. Guided by a constellation of seers, a dominatrix, and her cat, Cora, she descends through her own circles of hell—her raw, unsentimental voice threading through the criminal underworld as a Greek chorus gathers beneath it, creating a darkly absurdist rhythm that examines the strange loops of our self-perception.

    Ride or Die Girl is a crime story, an exploration of how predators nest inside their prey, and a practical primer on how to run a criminal enterprise. Most of all, it's a self-help manual for the next generation of ride or die girls.
