Heroines And Venomists

Heroines and Venomists is a book comprising sixteen women excerpted from the authors novels. You can meet Madame Dupre: wondrous, defensive, but still a force to be reckoned with. There is Claudette: angelic, pure, all giving no taking, but handed a lousy deal in life. Also there is Kate Mellon Winslow: money, beauty, brains, vindictive. A wow of a woman. Kates opposite is Edith Urban: a single forty-year-old nymphomaniac who introduces young Henri to cannibalistic sex. Her psyche is suicidal. And there is Avianna Madrianni: gifted musician, beautiful to the extreme, mean-spirited, indulgent of incest, murder and extortion. She is the sort of woman you wish upon an enemy. All sixteen meld into a potpourri of fascination and provide the reader with enough variety for one to pick and choose.
