Bankrupt, Coked Up and Fxxked Up: One Woman’s Account of Her Life With Her Sociopathic Husband

‘I don’t have to kill you in order to kill you.’ These were the chilling words repeated to Verity Veritas by her husband whenever she tried to break free from his suffocating control. In this shocking, no holds barred memoir, Verity recalls the two decades of hell she endured married to a millionaire sociopath. Verity was a single mum and working as a stripper to make ends meet when she met her former partner, whom she nicknames Agent of Chaos, in a nightclub. Although wary at first, it wasn’t long before Verity had fallen for her wealthy, handsome admirer and they duly tied the knot. But as Verity bluntly points out, this is no fairy tale and there is no happy ending. Although blessed with movie star good looks, captivating charm and an entrepreneurial brain, A.O.C. was devoid of empathy and a conscience. This is how Verity became trapped in an abusive, violent relationship that saw her fear for her own life, become dependent on illegal drugs and twice declared bankrupt.
