Angry Jonny
by Joaquin Emiliano
Verona, North Carolina. 2009. Jessica Kincaid, a wildly intelligent 18 year old with a dark past, finds her worst enemies being brutally taken down by Angry Jonny - an anonymous vigilante who has tapped into enraged psyche of the recession era. As her world descends into chaos, Jessica must track down Angry Jonny before she succumbs to his dangerous manifesto and the fury of her own demons.Imagine the worst individuals to have ever crossed you – the traitors, liars, cheats.Bullies, predators and sociopaths. Imagine if there were someone out there taking down every last one of them. Punishing them through savage acts of sadistic torture. Bringing your darkest fantasies to life while your hands remain clean. Imagine that you were the only one capable of stopping him. Then try to imagine why you ever would.It’s the summer of 2009, and Angry Jonny, an anonymous and calculating vigilante, has made the southern city of Verona his playground. His targets are drugged, then tied down – tongues severed, eyes cut out – left to live the rest of their lives blind and disfigured.The only thread linking them is Jessica Kincaid – a tough, wildly intelligent high school senior with a troubled past and track record of making more enemies than friends. Angry Jonny’s victims have all previously used their stature and power to humiliate and ruin Jessica, making her and everyone she knows a suspect or potential target. If she hopes to stay alive and out of jail, Jessica must stay one step ahead of the authorities in her pursuit of Angry Jonny. But a guardian angel, no matter how ruthless, can be a handy companion. The closer she gets to Angry Jonny, the more contaminated she becomes by his manifesto of brutal retribution. As Verona spirals into chaos, Jessica must choose her path: unmask the devil that holds her hand, or lose herself, irrevocably, to the seductive spell of Angry Jonny’s single minded fury.
