Seven Deadly Sins - People Behaving Badly - Very Badly - Seven Novellas on the theme of Seven!, #1

Everyone loves a good sin and there is enough material in Seven Deadly Sins to keep writers busy forever. This little novella involves four characters who appear in various duets. We watch how they work their way through the conflicts and contradictions that inevitably arise. Lust is a sin with great possibilities for writers. Here we meet two of the main characters, Nick and Angela. They work together in the local police department, but naturally there are complications.
Its a secret love affair that everyone knows about. Gluttony is just good fun if you are a writer and here we find Nick and his daughter Jessica. Jessica is junior adult, asserting herself but also failing. Some of her so called friends are taking advantage of them both. Envy always has potential. Jessica and Angela get drawn into a dangerous situation. They each see something in the other that they admire but have to rely on their own resources, some quite dramatic, in order to save themselves.
Greed lingers in some people. We meet Bob and his unusual connection to Nick. They have been sparring with each other for years. Here we find out why. Sloth is shown as procrastination and lack of responsibility here. Bob has to rely on his niece Angela when he has put off things needing attention. Stubbornness on both sides makes for an interesting dynamic. Pride must be one of the most long reaching of the sins.
Jessica meets Bob and each of them has an agenda. Bob sees opportunity and Jessica sees revenge. But they have a good time. Anger leads to resolution in this story. All four characters play a part in which combining and overcoming old attitudes has them all making changes. Each of the seven chapters takes about as long to read as a short commute or a relaxing cuppa or glass of your favourite! I hope you sit back wherever you are and enjoy them.
