Our Review

I remembered Sharon Beesley, the owner of the village shop, from the first book in the Shade Darker series. Here she is again, spreading her usual vitriol around the village like it was going out of fashion.

Someone is watching the shop from the shadows. Someone with an agenda, but who are they watching?

Eric Beesley, Sharon’s husband, has a secret, and I, for one, was happy for him.

Shame his wife already knew about it, though and was getting her own back in some secretive and diabolical ways. The toothbrush incident really turned my stomach!

I cannot say that I enjoyed reading Shape of Revenge, as that is entirely the wrong word for this riveting page-turner. Wonderfully written, it had me on the edge of my seat, praying Sharon would get her comeuppance!

People with a nervous disposition might want to think twice before opening this emotion-shredding book!
