⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Belabour by George Veck is a brutally real, dark and disturbing domestic thriller that will make your skin crawl and your blood run cold!' - Eva Edge ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The pitifully dysfunctional Paxton household isn't one to be envied. Ruled by the viciously corrupt Detective Sergeant Drake Paxton, served by his full-time domestic housewife, Amelia, and clung onto by Amelia's emotionally crippled, unemployable addict leech of a brother, Anton, nobody's come close to thriving for years. Amelia's endured this dismal nightmare for nearly a decade. Once her parents were jailed for fraud, Drake took advantage of their destitution by taking the pair in and piling them with Valium. Neither have been allowed to leave Chester and see their dear hometown of Rhiwlas, North Wales since.... Everything was great, for all of six months before Amelia and Drake's wedding. But when the harrowing physical and mental abuse began, leaving wasn't an option. As their sole Valium supplier, reluctant loyalty was already safely secured. After all, most reasons to linger come sealed in plastic strips or baggies. Slowly stripped of all support, Amelia's prospects lay painfully thin on the ground as she nears thirty. But while scared for her life, some glimmers of hope can't be touched or snatched through domestic torture. Everyone slips, but is the time worth biding? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What readers are saying about George Veck's brutal domestic thriller: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'What a compelling novel! It kept me on the edge of my seat from page 1! My first book by this author, it won't be the last.' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'This is one of those stories I believe will continue to resonate for a long time.' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'You know those books that are kind of like a train derailment that you can't look away from? Coming in at 255 pages, this is one of my new favourites. It was definitely a one-sitting read for me.' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'So many times it felt as if I was in the room with them and wanted to help. There are few authors who can draw you in like that.' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Wow! Such a powerful story that has some hard topics. The author doesn't hold back and tells the story with such brutal honesty.' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'What a read, I couldn't put it down. Yes we have the classic George Veck drug story but there is much more in this, from crime to abuse and miscarriage, got to be one of his best books, a must-read.' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Mr. Veck has done us a great service. He has pinpointed the evil that lives at the heart of our fallen natures - like the giant Adenoids in Thomas Pychon's Gravity's Rainbow - they clog our media in this Dystopian Age with a terminal death wish. They are lethal and they are us, a dying race. May I make a suggestion? Don't divert your eyes from Veck's words. He is only holding a mirror to our lost faces.' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'With strong characters and a disturbing storyline, it's hard to put this one down.' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'George Veck does not pull punches but has an admirable talent for writing differently and with realism.' >------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Trigger warnings - Domestic abuse, profanity, violence, drug use, sexual assault
