Extended description

Manhunt, the short story of the murder of the president, with a twist.

Excerpt:
Right now there is a massive manhunt for me. There’s almost no chance I will be found, but just in case, I need to set the record straight. I know you think you know what happened. I mean, it has been all over the news for days. The country in mourning, shocking act of violence, and on and on. But you only know what they told you. But once I tell you everything, tell you the truth, you’ll be thanking me. I’ll be a goddamn hero. Not that anyone will admit it. Doesn’t matter though. I’ll be long gone.
So like any good story, I have to start at the beginning. I know you’d prefer me to just cut to the chase. But there are some things you need to know first. (Read more) Manhunt, the short story of the murder of the president, with a twist.

Bear with me, you’ll be glad you did.

The Hate,a short story of revenge done right.

Excerpt:
He glanced back at me, smirking. That bastard was smirking at me.
At that moment I knew I would kill him. I knew I would make him beg for his life and then I would kill him. The image appeared in my head like a movie. Maybe he actually felt the daggers coming from my eyes because he stopped smirking and looked away.
He shouldn’t have killed her. He shouldn’t have left me with nothing more to lose.

Review by: Nora Lee on March 06, 2012 :
The main story was good and the shorts following it are mostly exerts of other works. Well written and interesting. The Hate portrayed a main character changed from loving mom to accomplished killer. Too many things happened without enough detail as to how they got done. Like, do you know how to break into a house with out leaving any signs of entry? How and when did the MC learn these skills? A decent fun short read if you don't ask too many questions.

The Hate: Fantastic! I was on the edge of my seat the entire story. My most satisfying moment: I thought what the cops found after the fact was most fitting.

Manhunt: Very entertaining and well written. I'll definitely be reading more by this author.

What do you do when the court system fails? For one woman it's a case of revenge and justice. When her daughter's killer gets away with murder, she's consumed with passionate hatred and starts a waiting game until she can finally bring him to justice. Her own type of justice.

This was a gripping tale of revenge. It's fast paced, well written, and had me hooked from page one. The bonus story is also a quick, thrilling read.
