SLAYERS by Corinne Salisbury

'He takes hold of my wrist. His thumb is on the vein. I don’t pull away. Then I do, I pull away.' Liane is a single mother, a survivor of abuse, now trying desperately to shield her ten-year-old daughter from the world’s dangers. As her daughter suffers bullying, Liane has a real-world encounter with the Manosphere that stokes her rage. Mother and daughter take up boxing. They develop a taste for violence. They plot their revenge… How can we arm our daughters against the world? And what happens when our anger makes us go too far?
