And So I Took Their Eye

By Ben C. Davies

The discovery of a body on the black-sand beaches of Guatemala sparks a chain of events that ripple across the globe.

From an Italian tailor crushed under the weight of his father's legacy to a mother challenging local snobbery on the cricket fields of England, a vengeful Bolivian priest chasing Che Guevara's ghost, to a Bay Area therapist blind to his own advice, the lives of a seemingly unconnected group of strangers become fatefully entangled in murder, arson, betrayal, and love. These stories examine abuses of power in a world fractured by inequalities. As their characters confront brutal truths, morality blurs, forcing them to question the meaning of belonging and the lengths they'll go to carve out their place in an unforgiving world.

Guided by the ancient creed of 'an eye for an eye', Ben C. Davies' And So I Took Their Eye is a gripping collection of interlinked stories exploring what happens when justice is taken into your own hands - and ultimately, what it means to be human.

Impossible to put down... And So I Took Their Eye defies pat categorization and rests its appeal upon the unexpected. Prepare to be amazed. - D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review (Donovan's Book of the Month)

A thoughtful collection that situates engaging characters in an array of distinctive settings. - Kirkus Review
