It's time to administer justice...

Agnes Carmichael is on the side of the angels, at least that's what she righteously tells herself. She pushes people to their limits as well as pushing the limits of the law, so long as they are the right, or rather the wrong, sort of people.

So, when she discovers that Geoffrey Campion, an unfaithfully married surgeon and serial philanderer, has contracted the AIDS virus from his mistress, Agnes perceives a threat to the lives of his patients and members of the community.

The arrogant Campion believes nobody knows he is HIV positive, and while he might think he can carry on living his promiscuous and professional life, Agnes, who just happened upon his mistress's diary, has other ideas. Acting anonymously, she vows to hound him out of his profession.

A suicide, a murder, a tormenting flow of blackmail demands, a swimming pool of blood-red water - the screws of retribution tighten to breaking point as the avenging angel exacts her justice.

In Anthea Cohen's new 'Agnes Carmichael' thriller, dangerous blood plays its tragic and vital role in a sexual drama of riveting proportions.
