‘A kick-ass anthology – funny, sexy, wicked, sad and positively blood-curdling by turns. GETTING EVEN should probably be banned – it’ll give revenge-seekers far too many ideas!’ – Lauren Henderson
‘Deliciously wicked stories. Revenge has never been sweeter… or sexier.’ – M J Rose
GETTING EVEN: REVENGE STORIES Published by Serpent’s Tail, London (an imprint of Profile Books) Now available from your favourite bookseller as well as available for purchase on the evening.
