Book Description
Renata Richardson thought her dream summer job on a Mediterranean beach would be the just escape she needed. Instead, she becomes the target of a brutal attack by a group of wealthy businessmen, handpicked for their money and power. But Renata isn’t just another victim—they picked the wrong girl. After the local police turn a deaf ear to her report, Renata is fueled by rage and determined to mete out her own version of justice. And the hunt begins. She tracks down the private jet that delivered the men to the island, sneaking a look at the flight logs during a control tower tour to identify the plane. Armed with the pilot’s name, she begins to track down him and those who participated in the attack. This leads to a deadly, globetrotting spree of revenge, where Renata uses small, memorized details from the assault—a pinkie ring, a mole, an unusual voice—to make sure she’s never wrong about her target. Each man leads her to the next, and she cleverly finds a way to gain access to each one, using false identities and even disguises. As she works her way up the chain, she knows the real prize is still out there: the mastermind who orchestrated it all for an obscene amount of money, giving instructions while he watched the horrific crime unfold. But Renata isn’t the only one in pursuit. An FBI agent is soon hot on her heels, determined to bring her down before she can complete her mission. The tension builds as Renata races against time—can she track down every last one of them and catch the mastermind before the agent catches her? Will she get away with her vengeance, or will justice catch up with her first? Renata’s Revenge is a taut, high-octane thriller packed with clever twists, meticulous planning, and heart-pounding suspense. Perfect for fans of strong female leads and relentless justice. Note: The premise for this fictional story is based on the Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell trafficking scandal.

9/11 Gothic

Languages : en
Pages : 231
Book Description
Published to coincide with the twentieth anniversary of the World Trade Center attacks, 9/11 Gothic: Decrypting Ghosts and Trauma in New York City’s Terrorism Novels returns to the ruins and anguish of 9/11 to pose a question not yet addressed by scholarship. Two time World Fantasy Award-winning writer Danel Olson asks how, why, and where New York City novels capture the terror of the Al-Qaeda mass murders through a supernatural lens. This book explores ghostly presences from the world’s largest crime scene in novels by Don DeLillo, Jonathan Safran Foer, Lynne Sharon Schwartz, Griffin Hansbury, and Patrick McGrath—all of whom have been called writers of Gotham. Arguing how theories on trauma and the Gothic can combine to explain ghostly encounters civilian survivors experience in fiction, Olson shares what those eerie meetings express about grief, guilt, love, memory, sex, and suicidal urges. This book also explores why and how paths to recovery open for these ghost-visited survivors in the fiction of catastrophe from the early twenty-first century.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 81
Book Description
A wicked stepmother finds her ideal prey in Carlone Blackwood's “quite brilliant” (The Times) debut. A lavish Upper West Side apartment is the site of a familial cold war about to enter a phase of dangerous escalation. J is a lonely woman without even the luxury of being alone. Her husband has fled to Paris with his latest flame, but he’s left J not only with their own four-year-old daughter, Sally Ann, but with the sulky cake-mix addicted, thirteen-year-old Renata, a leftover from his previous marriage. The presence of a pert au pair, Monique, serves only to make J feel more isolated and self-conscious. What she’d like is someone to blame. Writing letters in her head to imaginary friends, J delights in dwelling on the hapless Renata, who “invites a kind of cruelty.” This is an invitation J fully intends to take up—and like so many stepmothers before her, she will find that wickedness, once indulged, is a difficult habit to kick. A mordant black splinter of a book, Caroline Blackwood’s first novel stands as proof positive of her eternal mastery—and mockery—of the darkest depths of human feeling.

Book Description
At an exclusive Long Island yacht club, a police lieutenant and his investigator are trapped in a web of disappearances and deaths that link club members to Washington, the Coast Guard, and the underworld. An excerpt from Unsafe Harbor-- Cautious, he headed for shore and shallow water dragging the line. The magnet and object moved without encountering rock. Having no desire to share his treasure, Luke searched the shore, the bluffs and tree line to assure no one watched. This will be a secret for now. Seeing no one, he smiled from greed and scolded himself. At 6-feet depth, he saw the magnet attached to a long, dark object. What was it? The object did not look like a treasure chest. Images distorted underwater. Was it British cannon from the Revolutionary War? A British base was in Huntington Harbor. The cannon had to be valuable to a collector. History made it treasure. Wild with curiosity, Luke stared at the catch seeking identification as it moved towards shallow water until the depth was 3-feet. Then Luke's eyes widened and his breath stuck. The magnet attached to a chain wrapped around a man with his hands tied behind his back.
