Looking for books similar to "Psychological Anatomy". I don't want the female lead to be looked down on right from the start. I'd like an ensemble story that respects women and gives everyone their own strengths, with a clear-headed author and good writing. Ideally, it would feature high-IQ criminals and serial murder cases.
