Paperback. Following the sudden death of Charles Bolton, the senior partner of a major law firm in the city, his son Guy was shocked to learn from one of his clients that for many years she had been his lover and, furthermore, she knew he had maintained a string of mistresses in other locations he frequently visited. The revelation came as a total shock to Guy, but after some deliberation, he and his sister Deborah decided that they had to inform their mother. Judith Bolton had once been a hotshot lawyer in the same practice as her husband, earning a reputation as the most fearsome corporate solicitor in London, specialising in takeover deals and described by one City grandee as 'combining a sharp legal brain with the mind of a psychopath'.As a Trustee of a number of major charities and having served on Government committees, she still enjoyed a certain status in the social circles in which she moved, and she believed her professional reputation placed her above most other spouses in her husband's legal practice. The revelation of his infidelity therefore, hit her hard. She not only found it hurtful to her as a woman but, seemingly more important in her eyes, was the damage to her standing in the community. It was the ignominy of the latter which fuelled her anger, especially as, reinforced by a dream, she became convinced that her friends and former colleagues had been well aware of his behaviour but had kept silent. Humiliation was not an emotion with which Judith could cope. Combined with anger, it formed a lethal cocktail leading to only one outcome - revenge.Settling on the mistresses themselves as the guilty parties and motivated by an inner fury the 'legal psychopath' embarked on a secret and murderous programme to eliminate them one by one. Careful planning and a modicum of luck brought success in her diabolical plot as she systematically despatched the first four women on her list. However, in tackling the fifth and final victim, there was an unexpected twist in the tail and a shattering revelation which proved devastating for Judith and brought distress to her family. When a powerful London lawyer discovers her late husband's secret life of mistresses, humiliation turns to fury. Driven by pride and revenge, she begins eliminating them - until a final twist threatens to destroy her family. This item is printed on demand.

Sinopsis

Judith Bolton was once the most formidable corporate lawyer in London, specialising in high-stakes takeovers and feared across the City. One client described her, with unsettling accuracy, as having “a sharp legal brain with the mindset of a psychopath.”
That was years ago.
Now a respected figure serving on a government committee and trustee boards of major charities, Judith considers herself a woman of influence and standing. Reputation is everything.
Then, just days after her husband’s funeral, she discovers the truth: he had maintained a string of lovers across the country and even in Paris. Worse still, she becomes convinced that their friends and colleagues knew all along. That they watched. That they whispered. That they laughed.
Humiliation is something Judith cannot tolerate.
Anger turns to resolve. His lovers will not escape unpunished.
Methodical and controlled, Judith embarks on a deadly campaign of retribution. With careful planning - and a little luck - she begins to eliminate the women one by one.
But revenge has a habit of spiralling beyond control. And as her final act approaches, an unexpected and devastating revelation threatens to destroy everything Judith has left.

Review for Mrs Bolton’s Revenge.

I wanted to share how much I genuinely enjoyed this book. The story is immersive from the outset, and Judith is such a compelling central figure. The way her descent into psychopathy is handled feels meticulous and believable, and every stage of her plan ties back to that cold, clinical precision that makes her so striking on the page. Nothing is wasted, and nothing feels accidental. It’s a revenge arc carried with clarity.

The supporting cast adds real weight to the narrative, each serving a purpose without ever taking focus away. I thought the pacing towards the final act was especially strong, and the twist was both unexpected and satisfying. The police involvement was also well-balanced, providing credibility without overshadowing the story’s real heartbeat.

It reminded me a little of Oyinkan Braithwaite's 'My Sister, the Serial Killer' just in terms of the coldness and precision of the characters.
