If I Die Before I Wake: Tales of Deadly Women and Retribution

Go ahead, run. Hide, even. No matter. There's no place you can go that she won't find you.



A woman scorned. The sanctity of her sanctuary threatened. The betrayal of trust...even loyalty. Don't ever tell her not to take it personally, because that's exactly what it is. Personal. Your first blunder was mistaking her kindness for weakness. Your second was betraying her. The third? Underestimating her. Don't say we didn't warn you. Take the plunge into these tales of deadly women who will stop at nothing until vengeance is theirs.



The Better Off Dead series delves into the farthest corners of your mind, where your deepest, darkest fears lurk. These masters of horror will haunt your dreams and stalk your nightmares, taking you to the edge of sanity before pushing you to the brink of madness!
