| Summary |
For years, the deeply secretive Black Coats have been exacting vengeance on men who hurt girls and women. And Thea has just received an invitation to join them. This is the opportunity she's been waiting for to finally get justice for her cousin Natalie, whose killer went free. Thea dives headfirst into the group, training every day with other girls whose stories rival hers. Together, they carry out Balancings, acts of revenge guaranteed to teach a lesson. With every predator threatened, every blackmailer exposed, and every date rapist punished, Thea can feel herself getting closer to avenging Natalie's death. But then the Balancings begin to escalate in brutality, and Thea discovers the Black Coats are not all they seem to be. Thea must decide just how far she's willing to go for justice and what kind of justice Natalie, and Thea herself, deserve. Because when the line between justice and revenge is razor then, it's hard not to get cut. |
