Sticks and Stones by Jo Jakeman

A moment of revenge entangles three very different women

Good Condition - Covers scuffed and creased, upper front corner heavily curled, edges rubbed. Pages clean.

Imogen’s husband has treated her badly, and the women whose lives overlap with his have their own reasons to question him. When Imogen acts in a moment of anger, the consequences extend beyond the private satisfaction she expected. His ex-wife and new girlfriend become caught in the situation, bringing conflicting histories and perspectives to an increasingly unstable plan. As the women navigate the damage he has caused, trust is difficult and the truth becomes harder to separate from what each wants to believe. Jo Jakeman creates a psychological thriller about control, retaliation, and unexpected alliances. Sticks and Stones asks how far people might go when pushed beyond the limits of endurance.
