Short Story Press Presents A Serious Matter

Short Story Press

When wronged, is it better to seek revenge or to forgive? A Serious Matter describes the efforts of two long-lost childhood friends, Jeannie and Violet, to come to terms with their hatred of a mutual, unnamed enemy. • Jeannie already has a restraining order against the man, her estranged husband who previously tried to kill her. • The same man also killed Violet’s fiancé in a drunk-driving accident on Violet’s wedding day and feels no remorse. Jeannie learns about the accident and reaches out to Violet at the funeral, rekindling their friendship. • When Jeannie and Violet learn the man is being released from jail after serving only a few months of his jail sentence, they decide justice has not been served and they have to create a plan of vigilante revenge. • When their murder-for-hire plan does not execute in the way they had envisioned, their lives are changed forever. Short Story Press publishes short stories written by everyday writers. Author - Short Story Press. Narrator - Loralie Jacqueline. Published Date - Sunday, 22 January 2023.
