The first review of Vengeance Is Hers

5.0 out of 5 stars One of Chute’s best.

Reviewed in Canada on June 29, 2025

Vengeance is Hers is set in the fictional town of Poeticule Bay, Maine, a community inspired by the author’s Nova Scotia upbringing. The story begins with a morally satisfying act of revenge, but as Molly grows into adulthood and pursues a life in academia, her motivations become more complex and unsettling.

This is a noir-tinged character study that spans more than a decade, exploring adult themes and emotional loss. A late twist surprised me, yet it felt exactly right.


I read this as a beta reader but received no compensation other than the pleasure of engaging with a smart, gripping novel. I highly recommend it.

(Thank you to ARC reader extraordinaire, Russell! I certainly appreciate it!)
