"Redemption" by Dafney Dewitt (crime drama sex) 10, 9, 9
"Redemption" by Dafney Dewitt (DafneyDewit@Juno.com). This is a parody of the "Law and Order" television show. Claire is an assistant district attorney. Stone is an asshole whom she sent to the slammer. Tommy is Claire's mentally retarded brother. Stone gets Tommy involved in sexual and criminal activity to get back at Claire. He hopes eventually to strip Claire of all her dignity. The plot gets really complicated. Had this happened to the assistant district attorney in Dallas, she would have simply reported the matter to Chuck Norris, who would have kicked but for her. I felt this was an interesting attempt, but a not-quite-satisfying story. The sex is not really hot; the focus is on sexual blackmail rather than sexual activity. Ultimately, there are a few too many loose ends. Ratings for "Redemption" Athena (technical quality): 10 Venus (plot & character): 9 Celeste (appeal to reviewer): 9 |
