The Verdict
by Olivia Isaac-Henry
When you are already known as the cheating wife and a bad mother, you are also accused of being a murderer. What will happen to you then?
The thing I liked about this book is the interlocking chapters between the past and present. The alternate chapters were good enough to understand the nature of the story as well as the characters.
The characters are well written that you can actually picture them doing those things while reading. We have both likeable and unlikeable characters (Boy! Do I hate Gideon?). The plot was action-packed and it never sagged throughout the book.
The struggles of a woman being cheated by her long term boyfriend and her coping mechanisms are actually relatable. What went wrong with Julia's life(protagonist) was analysed to the point in the story. How living with an abusive and manipulative husband can change your life is the highlight of this book (according to me). Overall, it maintained the mystery with a typical plot-twist.
I recommend this book to all mystery-loving fans.
