When Victoria awakes to find a dead man in her bed, A Wish for
Death, takes you back seventeen years leading up to the demise of
the murdered man. Who was he? Did she kill him? Victoria had no
idea that stepping into the work world would make such a dramatic
change in her life. As a housewife and mother of five children, her
life consisted of being a caretaker for years. When she entered the
work world, she and her husband, Stan, would endure drastic changes
in both of their lives. Sexual harassment and eventually rape leads
Victoria down a winding road. As she struggles to come back up and
regain her dignity, she must overcome guilt, hopelessness and
turmoil. Years later she learns of her daughter's dilemma, and
struggles to help her daughter overcome the trauma she's been
through. Her past experience assists in the aid of her daughter's
recovery. Victoria attends college as an adult, and strives to make
it in the southern state of South Carolina, a state once known as
"a good ole boy state." Both she and her daughter are frightened
when they become a target. But in the end, victory lies in fate,
and fate usually comes with a price. Victoria's victory and fate
comes with the ultimate price-death.
