Book excerpt: There is a veneer of civilisation in this world in which we live, but scratch beneath the surface & you'll uncover an underworld of fear, violence & death. Sometimes though you don't have to peek into the shadows & darkness to find it, sometimes death comes to get you. When her friend disappears in mysterious circumstances and with the police seemingly unable to help, Ru yearns to ditch her mundane day job and dips her toe in a world that soon threatens to subsume not just her but all those she loves. What starts as a curious investigation soon erupts into a one-woman crusade to clean up the streets & gain justice at whatever cost. Swallowed up by a world of gangs, drugs & guns, Ru transforms herself into V & uses the two things no man can resist, her stunning beauty and powerful Mixed Martial Arts skills. The weak and oppressed have a new hero in town, you better remember it as one day you might need to call her. Her name is V, for Vixen. Vixen is a Vigilante Pulp Noir Action Thriller.
