Ruth Pettite's "Swiveled Craving" takes you through yet another twisted and turned loop of events that only she can fathom and bring out to us. As we learn the multiple character storyline, pay close attention. Someone has a role in the story, somewhere.

Revenge can be sweet for some. For others, it can be deadly. Jennifer McCain has dealt with more than her fair share of mishaps over time. Her wife's ex, institutionalized for attempted murder, and seems to be the ultimate culprit yet unable to perform the crimes that she has been accused of. Her health has failed her miserably, but Jenny has insisted that Casey is out to get her still.

But if Casey is locked away, how can Jenny even think it would be her? Could it be her wild imagination and things just happen to go wrong? Could someone else be copycatting Casey's original plots? Does Jenny need help for her traumatic stress?

The life of Casey, Danny, Jenny and Ava is one that has more turns than most soap operas on television, yet Ruth still keeps us in tune without jumping all over the place. Join Short Story Press and Ruth Pettite in the mysterious vengeance of "Swiveled Craving."
