First up is Kathryn, a long distance truck driver who was raped at a road stop by three motorcyclists as her paralysed husband watched, helpless. An idea is born, and within months Myra and Nikki have drawn together a group of women who have one thing in common: they have been failed by the American justice system, they’re down but they’re not out, and they’re ready to find their nemeses and make them pay. Until one day she switches on the evening news and sees Marie Lewellen, mother of a murder victim, take matters into her own hands and stab her daughter’s killer. Festering in a sea of recriminations and hatred, unable to gain a sense of perspective, Myra is lost… But Nikki has her work and her lover, fellow lawyer Jack Nolan, to keep her going, whereas Barbara’s mother, Myra, has nothing. Nikki Quinn is devastated when her best friend Barbara is knocked down and killed by a hit and run driver who claims diplomatic immunity.
