Recenzii
"From a banger of an opening line through to the last page of the book, The Vengeance pulled me along on one of the most enjoyable reads I've had in years. Newman has always been a great writer, and she knocks it out of the park with an incredibly compelling story of piracy, romance, and what family really is. What a joy this was to read!" --CE Murphy, author of Urban Shaman
