Operator 56? She was just the beginning. I wasn't just surviving anymore ? I was becoming someone new. Someone I finally respected.

Testament to the formidable resilience of women and the power of female friendship, Operator 56 is a wild, unflinching ride. It proves that life can be messier and stranger than any Hollywood script ? and strength can be found in the most unlikely places.

It was 1998. With a triple murder case behind her and driven by financial desperation, Lucia Domenica began working nights on the sex phone lines. She was determined to give her daughters a better life than she ever had. But what started as a way to survive soon became a lifeline ? not only for the mysterious callers, but also for herself.

Operator 56 dives into the backrooms of sex lines and brothels ? and the chilling homicides Lucia found herself entangled in. A raw, unapologetic memoir, it will hook you in with the secrets nobody talks about and hold you until the very last page with the courageous life of a woman on the other end of a phone line.

In a world that wanted to silence and sideline her, throwing situations at her that are truly unimaginable, Lucia held it all together with grit and tenacity. She fought to find, and accept, herself. She listened to her caller's stories; now it's time she told hers.

Operator 56 flips the bird to judgement and will make you question everything you think you know about sex, love, work and life.
