A thrilling revenge drama... powerfully written, and both entertaining and thought-provoking. --Arts Desk; Funny, pointed and complex... Raine's writing crackles with a sharp-tongued and witty energy. Every line is measured and well-balanced, offering a sure-footed and somewhat galling examination of people, with all their horrendous faults on show. --whatsonstage; A play of fierce moral intelligence... always lively and engrossing... Consent stimulates debate rather than stifles it. --Guardian; Intricately layered... besides its astute observation of the balancing acts involved in marriage, there's plenty of finely tuned comedy. There's also an eagerness to address universal concerns - justice, betrayal, revenge and forgiveness. Yet more than anything else Raine is interested in language, which lies at the heart of every legal case and proves so worryingly slippery. --Evening Standard
