Hello everyone
My name is Nery and I am an author based in Kingswood in Bristol and I have recently had my first book published entitled ‘The Immigrant Veronicas Story’. It’s a true-crime, autobiographical memoir telling the harrowing and shocking true story of Veronica as she endured domestic abuse and violence from a very young age that continued in to adulthood. She escaped her constant pain and suffering to start a new life away from her family, her friends and the country she called home. Her new life in England bought peace and solitude only for a short while as a new regime of terror began that eventually led to murder. My story is based on actual events that occurred in Bristol in 2003 and carry memories that still haunt me even today.

A very entertaining read that kept me on the edge of my seat. It is both heart warming and shocking at the same time. The gradual build up to it's finale is well written, creating a real page turner. The story explores controversial themes such as domestic abuse and violence in the home, a subject that needs to brought out in to the public eye. The novel is also based on true events that occurred in Bristol, UK in 2003, adding to the it's tense and thrilling epilogue. For her first novel, this is a fabulous read and I look forward to new manuscripts from Nery McMahon. Congratulations on producing the perfect read.
