Summaries

A woman takes revenge on the man who invades her home and tries to rape her.

An intended rape victim manages to escape from her attacker but leaves her purse behind. Worried that he may visit her house and finish what he has started, she contacts the police but they are unable to help, saying that she has no proof. Her worst fears are realised when, alone one day in the house, her attacker visits and attempts again to rape her. Circumstances allow her not only to resist the attack but to turn the tables and lock him away. And that is where her dilemma really starts. Does she release him and risk another attack? Does she go to the police and risk being called a liar? Or does she kill him - and become as low as him?—Rhino <[email protected]>

As a result, Marjorie faces the ruthless rapist in her home. But nothing is over until it's over. As Marjorie turns the tables on the brutal invader, the shocked pursuer is with his back to the wall. And tied up in the fireplace, he is at the lady's mercy. After all, Marjorie has the upper hand. Above all, she knows how to get her revenge.—Nick Riganas
