Official synopsis Publisher
What would you do if you had a second chance? A do-over? How far would you go to get back at the one who got away, the one who did you wrong, the one who tricked you, manipulated you, ignored you? The one who dumped you, cheated on you-or harmed a friend? What would you risk to have that one little chance to get back at them?
Twenty-two brilliant skilled authors now offer their journeys into revenge. Retribution. Redemption. Revealed how they would even the score, turn the tables, make things right. One used a map. One a tape recorder. A decoy. A disguise. A lie. One even used a banana.
And, fine. Because we are crime fiction authors, turns out there’s a lot of murder involved. And because these are short stories-hang on for the ride. Twists, turns, surprises-and even some heartbreak.
Because there’s nothing as delicious and tempting as a second chance. Oh, we promise ourselves. This time for sure.
