"Not many of us would admit, even to ourselves, that we had
actually wished for something awful to befall anybody we knew. On
the other hand, if we've ever felt exploited by an acquaintance, or
undervalued in a job that we felt trapped in-if we've experienced
an unappreciative boss, a backstabbing co-worker, a jealous rival,
a manipulative friend, a faithless lover, an intrusive neighbor, or
even a controlling homeowners' association board . . . well, you
get the picture.
"Each of us has doubtless gone a round or two with someone whom
we secretly felt deserved more than a small dose of Divine Justice.
This probably explains why most of us can't help but smile upon
hearing that somebody who "done us wrong" has, at long last, gotten
his "just desserts." In extreme cases (that is, if you're anything
like me) you might even have gone so far, in the past, as to uncork
a small split of champagne
"I suspect there'll be plenty of bubbly flowing as you relish
reading about twenty of literature's most deserving villains, who
get their comeuppance in Chesapeake Crimes: They Had It
Comin'."
--Katherine Neville, from the Foreword
