3 great short stories, all linked. These are tales of women who are strong but damaged, can they overcome their worst nightmares. All of them are forced to look within for the strength to endure and survive the horror. The second story is my favourite, I love a witch story and thus did not disappoint!
Within You - a mother is alone in a storm with her baby waiting for her husband to return home when someone comes knocking
Within Me - a teenager finds out she is the descendant of powerful witches but others hate her power and intend to destroy her and her family.
Within Us - a father teaches his daughter how to use a machete which when used turns her into something else, something deadly.

Female protagonist clearly written by a male author; while being in a scary & dangerous situation she’s worried about her baby weight and talks about her leaking engorged tits. No thank you.
