MY REVIEW
The Revenge Of Rita Marsh, by Nilesha Chauvet is the revenge thriller of the summer 2024. It takes a lot of time to prepare and write a novel, with an idea that no one has come up with before. I loved the idea of the whole story. For me this story was fresh and different. My name is Rita Marsh now, not Rita Patel. And I’m unstoppable. Rita is half Indian. Her late father, with black hair, and her late mother had blonde hair. Rita has blocked her Asian side out of her life. I liked how Rita was given two jobs, running a care home, with by night having a top secret job. Rita hates men prying on little girls online. She takes into her own hands pretending to be a 12 year old girl named Holly. She is ready to expose any pervert, that contacts her thinking that is 12, wanting to meet up with her. Spider and Spike, are code names are all set and ready to pounce on any one breaking the law, enticing young girls to meet them. When Rita meets up with a man, she leads him to be arrested, she films the whole thing, posting it on Facebook, but she gets backlash from Facebook users. This is Rita’s life that unfolds, one that I will never forget. Rita Marsh is a well like character, leading this debut book The Revenge Of Rita Marsh, a must buy, must read. Whatever the author Nilesha Chauvet, writes next, I will be sure be reading it!
