A Manifestation of Malice

By Helen Hillyndale

Brenda Berger, living in Windhoek, Namibia, is cruelly abused by her parents during her formative years and develops a hatred for her fellow beings that dominates her life. Throughout her young life she has been ridiculed and betrayed. She meets Constan a (Connie) Amores, another abused student at her school, and, at the age of eighteen, the two young girls plan to eliminate their tormentors, especially their parents.On the day that they've agreed to begin their revenge Connie commits suicide and Brenda is left to continue on her own. Brenda kills both her parents and then goes to her school, mainly to wreak revenge on Brian Brentwood, her main tormentor during her schooldays. Unable to kill Brian, she kidnaps him and holds him hostage only to find out that Brian is also the victim of child abuse.This is a story of the triumph of love over its real enemy, indifference; the turning away from those in need. It's the story of the influence that one person's love can have on another; the transformation of an individual filled with hatred and revenge into someone who can express love and compassion.
