I read Cometierra ('Eartheater') by Dolores Reyes recently and absolutely loved it. It touches on themes of the plague of femicide through magical realism -- the protagonist is a psychic of sorts who can solve the mystery of a disappearance or murder by eating the dirt from the place that the victim was discovered or last seen. Heartbreaking but so incredibly well done.
