J.K. Rowling is at it again. The author, writing under her pseudonym Robert Galbraith, has released a new book, The Ink Black Heart, the sixth installment of her Coroman Strike series, that centers around a plot line suspiciously mirroring her own experiences griping about trans people online.

Rowling’s 1,000-page tome, which reintroduces readers to the series’s titular detective, partly centers on the investigation of the gruesome murder of Edie Ledwell, a popular Youtube cartoon creator that is essentially hunted down by what Rowling is heavy-handedly decrying as the woke mob of the cancel culture age.
