Bergen County, NJ, USA - January 9, 2026 - Author and community leader Sandra L. Barone announces the release of "When Revenge Calls" (ISBN: 9798993951706), a riveting psychological thriller that marks the first installment in the highly anticipated Vengeance Trilogy. Blending razor-sharp tension with deep emotional grit, Barone's latest work explores the terrifying lengths the past will go to reclaim what it is owed.
In "When Revenge Calls," readers are introduced to Samantha, a survivor who believes she has finally outrun the shadows of a brutal marriage and a traumatic childhood. Finding solace with Doc—a compassionate and insightful ally—she begins to rebuild a future on hope. But peace is short-lived. A chilling cat-and-mouse game pulls Samantha back into the darkness, as a predator stalks her every move and long-buried memories surface to reveal a truth she isn't ready to face.
While the novel delivers the heart-pounding suspense of a classic domestic thriller, it is grounded in Barone's signature ability to write with honesty and vulnerability.
"This is a story of survival, justice, and the resilience of the human spirit," says Barone. "I wanted to explore not just the fear of being hunted, but the incredible strength it takes to lower the walls around your heart after trauma."
