Review: If you’ve read the outstanding Stung, you already know that a happy ending for Victor and Crunch wouldn’t, or couldn’t, include anything quite so simple as the two of them riding off into the sunset together. Taking a leap of faith, he shows up at Victor’s door, but will it turn out he really was missed? But content as he is, Crunch can’t forget Victor, the beautiful prisoner with whom he shared a brief affair. "Stung" is a standalone book and a part of the "Zombie Gentlemen" universum.“Life, at best, is bittersweet.” – Jack Kirbyīlurb: It’s been a few months since Crunch and his comrades liberated the mob-run prison camp HoneyHill. Thankfully, Victor would never be dumb enough to try and escape through a forest that's swarming with zombies.
Hundreds of people depend on Crunch keeping his identity a secret, revealing it could be fatal for both him and Victor, and a failure of his mission. But it's hard not to get seduced by Victor's big brown eyes and fingertips that don't know work. Distraction is the last thing he needs after months of undercover work. If Crunch wants Honeyhill liberated, he needs to focus on his job, not on protecting Victor, one of many new arrivals on the farm.
He needs to run, and his new alliance might prove to be a burden instead of solace. That anchor comes in the form of Crunch, a hunky ex-sailor with a pair of tight leather trousers and a ruggedly handsome face.īut from day one, Victor knows he won't last long with the hard physical work assigned to him and the torment he suffers at the hands of a sadistic guard. Upon arrival in Honeyhill, he decides he needs an anchor, an alliance with one of the guards, if he wants to survive.
Victor is a man of delicate sensibilities, not fit to do backbreaking labour on a farm ran by the mob. If you want honey, prepare to get stung.
