A Marital Coup

With "A Marital Coup", Rafael Menton brings us the tale of a French wife who has had enough. Which will mean bad news to the philandering and overbearing husband who depends upon he for far more than he knows. Marginalised and neglected after having given her husband three lovely and loving young daughters, a French wife decides her husband is not the only one who can play around outside of their marriage. The lover she chooses though, and the course that lover sets them on, is going to prove both an eye-opener as well as a game-changer for the wife. As well as change the self-perception of one macho husband as he realizes where the true power in his marriage really resides. Not to mention how his carefree life will change when the one in possession of that power is made to realise the fact. If you enjoy female-led stories that tease the darker areas of the imagination rather than bludgeon them into the light, you are likely to delight in Mr Menton's tales - past and present - on the themes of crime, horror, the occult, and the perpetual power struggle between men and women. Rafael Menton is the author of "Madame Fabienne" and a large catalogue of other female-led books and stories.
