Bad Move... Plus-1

Two female-led books of crime and the occult open with Kurt Steiner's tale of a man-hating female-sect in India, "Rune of Evil". Read on, as a disgraced UK professor, temporarily transplanted to a Madras University, becomes prey to a secretive and centuries old and matriarchal sect. The same sect comprised of local Indian females and presided over by a venerable "Patiriyar" acting as the conduit to a vengeful and sadistic female demon. A demon who rewards her female devotees worship of her by giving them power over the men of their choice… An unwanted and chilling reality that same professor is about to be acquainted with at first-hand… And not just him! This is followed by Rafael Menton's "Bad Move"; in which a good cop with sexual demons, who is about to go bad, comes face to face with a woman who has been in that condition for a long time. A wealthy Arab woman and academic with secrets of the most morally repellent kind he is about to try and blackmail… Only to find he will be the one who finds himself at her mercy and that of her two female assistants… And in a far more permanent way. Fantasy female-led fiction of a believable kind for those readers with a desire to have a light shone on the more… outré …corners of their imaginations.
