Troubled Blood isn't marketing transphobia save in the mind of a reviewer with an axe to grind wrt Rowling's public statements. The wikipedia page outlines the charge that it contains "pernicious anti-trans tropes"…
> the point is she chose to include transgender characters Which character in Troubled Blood is transgender? Is there a transgender character in The Ink Black Heart ? It's not Dennis Creed as I recall from my reading some time past, certainly not Edie Ledwell. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41536875
