I finished this book few minutes ago and my head is reeling. I remember reading It Ends With Us last year and feeling the same sense of restlessness post finishing the book. Verity is a magnificent book that makes you feel terrified and excited at the same time. It's not complicated or lengthy like other thrillers but is something that you can devour in a single sitting. I began reading this book in the morning and was done within couple of hours.

Lowen Ashleigh witnesses a road accident on the first day she decides to step out after her mother's death. A stranger helps her in regaining her senses and soothes her nerves. She then recieves an offer to write the sequels to a famous book written by Verity who's husband happens to be the one who helped Ashleigh post the accident. Jeremy is a man who has an air of mystery around him and when he requests Ashleigh to accept the offer, she finds herself saying yes. Verity is confined to bed after she crashes into a tree and hence they decided to seek an other author's help in finishing her books. Ashleigh moves in to his family house to study Verity's work over the years. It is then that she finds Verity's autobiography in the desk drawers and discovers the ugly truth behind their daughters death.

In the manuscript, Verity writes about her aversion to her children and her obsession towards Jeremy. Ashleigh struggles to wrap this information and warns Jeremy about his wife's intentions and hand behind his childrens' death. As Jeremy and Ashleigh bond during her stay in their house, the danger of having Verity under the roof intensifies. It is then that the book changes into something exceptional. Pick up this book to know if Verity was truly a murderer or if she was innocent. The story doesn't really end till the last page. It makes you marvel at how superbly the author has brought this book together. A splendid thriller with wonderful character development.

Rating - 5/5.
