No Permission Needed

Nature has been more than kind to Gina - probably too kind. She is also incredibly smart. Can you be too smart?

Somehow, she has allowed herself to be presumed on by others - her superiors at work, her husband - and her children.

But Gina has a plan, a dark, devious one that she has worked on furtively for several years. It requires her to be ruthless and cunning, and work reclusively to achieve her goal.

Over the last little while, Gina has leveraged two latent talents that have secretly built her wealth. Now she can escape the fate, close off her current shallow existence, and set off to the Antipodes to find herself.

But danger strikes when she succumbs to the charming writer Max. In her own mind, she develops the perception that Max is stalking her. So now, for the second time, she has to flee - this time from Max’s clutches. A pattern is emerging.
