Book description: 

THE WORLD MISTAKES YOU BOTH FOR VILLAINS

You are Lady Macbeth. You have plotted your king’s death and now you need to flee.

You turn to the Three Witches for help, but their spell casts you out into an unrecognisable new realm.

You fall through a door only to stumble upon another woman’s blood-soaked triumph: you meet Klytemnestra as she stands over her husband’s corpse.

But as this Queen of Mycenae mistakes you for a spirit, she chases you through another mysterious door into the world of stories.

Hunted by wraiths in an unfamiliar land determined to destroy you both, you are forced into alliance.

Castles crumble. Myths collide. In the chaos, your dark rivalry gives way to a fiery attraction no one could have predicted.

To survive, you must choose: return to the tragedies that define you, or burn those stories’ pages and rewrite your ending, together . . .

For fans of A Dowry of Blood, Clytemnestra, and Piranesi, Vile Lady Villains is an unforgettable ride into the realm of stories.
