This collection of seventeen revenge stories features an all-girl, all-women cast of villains, good-girls-gone-bad, or just your everyday woman caught up in terrifying circumstances with no way out--other than violence. Some stories are PG-13; others are strictly for the mature. Each one, however, whether a bullied teenager in her high school or a housewife terrified of her ex's release from prison, say something about Kipling's adage of the female of the species.
