A GOLD COLLECTOR’S EDITION HARDBACK FEATURING A LETTER FROM COLLEEN AND A NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN FINAL CHAPTER THAT WILL BLOW YOUR MIND . . . THINK YOU KNOW HOW IT ENDS? THINK AGAIN.
The No.1 bestseller and TikTok sensation from the author of It Ends With Us – now a major film.
Lowen Ashleigh is a struggling writer on the brink of financial ruin when she accepts the job offer of a lifetime. Jeremy Crawford, husband of bestselling author Verity Crawford, has hired Lowen to complete the remaining books in a successful series his injured wife is unable to finish.
Lowen arrives at the Crawford home, ready to sort through years of Verity’s notes and outlines, hoping to find enough material to get her started. What Lowen doesn’t expect to uncover in the chaotic office is an unfinished autobiography Verity never intended for anyone to read. Page after page of bone-chilling admissions, including Verity’s recollection of the night their family was forever altered.
Lowen decides to keep the manuscript hidden from Jeremy, knowing its contents would devastate the already-grieving father. But as Lowen’s feelings for Jeremy begin to intensify, she recognizes all the ways she could benefit if he were to read his wife’s words. After all, no matter how devoted Jeremy is to his injured wife, a truth this horrifying would make it impossible for him to continue loving her . . .

Disturbing, sinister and utterly addictive
If you've yet to experience the delight that is reading one of Hoover's novels, we suggest starting with this . . . Prepare for your pulse to race and your palms to sweat
Brilliantly fresh, punchy, clever and superbly entertaining . . . It's no wonder Verity is the book everyone is talking about
I loved Verity - an extremely pageturnery book that felt like a delicious mash-up of Flowers in the Attic and Rebecca
Just when you think you know what to expect next, Hoover hits you with another turn
A mystery romance that'll have you on the edge of your seat (and keep you up all night)
It deserves to be huge. A modern-day Rebecca with, dare I say it, an even cleverer twist. I adored it
I can't remember the last time I read a book in one day. It was everything I hope for and more in a book, impossible to put down, oh so clever, and with a killer twist. I think I found a new favourite author!
Truly twisted, jaw-dropping
Verity delivers the grand slam of thriller twists - the holy grail of "what the . . ?!' moments
Sublimely creepy with a true Hoover pulse. I've been waiting for a thriller like this for years
