Title: End Of The Rope
Publisher: Locksley Hall Publishing
Literary Agency: The Book Bakers
As a psychological thriller, End of the Rope takes us through an unassuming conversation between two women, only to realise, as the story ploughs onward, there’s something more sinister at play. Flipping through the pages, where a twist awaits at each bend, is like peeling off one layer after another.
Supporting the excellent plotline is the style of writing Shaurya has adopted: lucid, simplistic, unexaggerated. At a mere 160 pages, you can breeze through the book in one sitting, which makes it a perfect accompaniment for a flight or a train ride.
The cover bears a minimalistic appeal, tantalising you with just enough to draw you inside the world of the two characters. The colour theme used, predominantly white with elements of red, maroon and black, is pleasing.
End of the Rope makes for an intriguing, riveting, and compelling read.
