Book Description
SWEAR VENGEANCE is the story of Marie, who due to a lightening bolt from the black heavens and a mutant herb, has a chance for a second journey through life. To be young again and have love long denied. Until the time comes when she must wreak vengeance upon those who would prevent her new life. Marie, in her younger years, was an Air Force bomber pilot. She was in love and to be married. Then in a bit of a lover's quarrel during the wedding party, she shoves him away from her and he trips and falls from the deck of the dance pavilion into the flooding LeTort River and drowns. In great torment at the death of her beloved, Marie swears an oath never to love again. Now a doctor, she lives alone and practices medicine in rural Pennsylvania.Brent Dickson, an engineer, is wrongly accused of the killing of a young woman. Avery Stanholt, the wealthy father of the dead woman, hires the assassin Laroche and his two killers to find and slay Brent. Marie, on a lonely walk in the deep forest on the high reaches of Black Log Mountain, chances upon a new species of herbal plant growing in a lightening blasted area of broken trees and shrubs. The herb is a mutant created by the ripping apart of the genes of plants in the powerful electrical field of the lightening strike and mixing them into a combination to create a new specie. Marie experiments with the herb by sampling tiny bits of its root. Over the next days as Marie tests the root, she discovers that she is growing ever younger, wrinkles fading, youthful beauty returning.Hardly believing what is happening to her, Marie hastens to share her discovery of the miracle herb with her longtime friend Nell. She finds Nell murdered. When the law fails to discover clues as to who had committed the crime, or why, Marie swears vengeance and sets out to find the clues that will lead her to the murderers. During her search for the killer, Marie encounters the handsome Brent Dickson and they fall in love. Marie and Brent join forces to solve Nell's murder. They find that the killers are the same as those pursuing Brent. Laroche and his killers discover Marie and Brent are pursuing them and they attack the two. In the battle, Brent is killed. Marie slays one of the killers and escapes. Marie, doubly anguished and doubly determined to make Laroche and his killers pay for their terrible crimes, trails them to the dangerous criminal underworld of the Boston waterfront with its assassins, smugglers and drug dealers. Marie draws Laroche into a trap and they clash in a battle to the death. The conclusion of the story is startling, amazing.

Book Description
Can there be a virtue in vengeance? Can revenge do ethical work? Can revenge be the obligation of women? This wide-ranging literary study looks at Shakespeare's women and finds bold answers to questions such as these. A surprising number of Shakespeare's female characters respond to moral outrages by expressing a strong desire for vengeance. This book's analysis of these characters and their circumstances offers incisive critical perceptions of feminine anger, ethics, and agency and challenges our assumptions about the role of gender in revenge. In this provocative book, Marguerite A. Tassi counters longstanding critical opinions on revenge: that it is the sole province of men in Western literature and culture, that it is a barbaric, morally depraved, irrational instinct, and that it is antithetical to justice. Countless examples have been mined from Shakespeare's dramas to reveal women's profound concerns with revenge and justice, honor and shame, crime and punishment. In placing the critical focus on avenging women, this book significantly redresses a gender imbalance in scholarly treatments of revenge, particularly in early modern literature.
