I have no idea how I managed to miss the character of Anne DeWitt in the past, but boy, does she speak to me. I don't think I'd actually want to interact with someone with no empathy and a completely ruthless and lethal attitude towards the world, but as a fantasy element she is extraordinarily satisfying. I found this collection delightful -- from the school setting, to the survivalist skills, to the strangely unsentimental romance. I would totally read more adventures if they come to pass.

These are interesting little stories but they didn't really grab me. Although linked, I'm not sure if this was the best way to present them. The recaps necessary for when stories are published separately gave the collection a feel of too much repetition.
The characters were unusual, but their motivations and actions often seemed a bit strange and made it hard to identify with them, or even like them at times.
This is an easy read, however, and a reasonable choice if you want something a little different. (

These four short stories are all set in a separate universe from her other stories. It deals with a retired spy working a principal at a high school. It turns out that a coach is also a retired spy and the first story deals with Anne disposing of someone that tried to kill her. This is a good collection of thriller stories and I certainly wouldn’t mind reading more in this universe. (
