Ava Winters is young, beautiful, and the heiress to Napa's prized Starling Vineyards. She is also in love with the perfect guy at least that's what she thinks until he helps take everything that was once hers. With no place left to turn, Ava finds herself on Rebun Island, Japan, the site of Takeda's revenge school, where she trains to be mentally and physically strong enough to take revenge. On the island, Ava meets Emily Thorne, who has recently returned to training with Takeda. Emily shares her wisdom with Ava about revenge and the importance of looking for justice in a world where enemies thrive. Four others are on the island preparing for their own personal vengeance--a handsome but guarded man, a feisty young woman and the guy who will do anything to protect her, and a girl who has no memory or idea of who she is or why she's on Rebun. Conflicts arise, bonds are formed, and romance even blooms. The trainees learn that their missions are intertwined. All roads lead back to Ava's home in Napa and Starling Vineyards' annual gala, and if the group attends, each will gain the chance to exact revenge. But to get there on time, they must leave Japan and Takeda before their training is complete. Are they ready? Will they succeed? Will they even survive?

This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2014. Can we answer what is revenge in a simple way, relying on ancient formulas such as “an eye for an eye”? It’s very unlikely. Revenge is a complex of beliefs, emotions and actions. Its serves a critical social function has a lot of different cultural meanings and is deeply rooted in our minds and bodies, defying the nature and nurture division. Besides that, crossing the limits of the material experience, the theme of revenge was also constantly associated with religious and metaphysical explanations of the universe. Are we biologically predisposed for revenge? What legal institutions have to do with it? What the belief that the evil done on earth will be punished on the afterlife, or here and now, by supernatural entities and forces, can alter our way of living? Could books, plays, movies or even TV shows where zombies are brutally eliminated reveal a glimpse on concrete revenge? Connecting various analysis created by scholars from different disciplines and parts of the world, this book skips the easy way and tries to embrace the concept of revenge in its full complexity. The result is a kaleidoscope where revenge can be seen by surprising perspectives.
