To the Bitter End – Nicky Shearsby

Some losses don’t heal…

They harden

After seeing the devastating results a brutal attack has on his best friend Rebecca, Craig Marshall is left with an absence he can’t name and a justice system that offers no relief. He unravels. Days blur, nights stretch, his thoughts circling the one person who refuses to disappear from his mind.

What begins as survival becomes obsession.

What feeds necessity becomes inevitable.

Told in a voice both intimate and unflinching, this is a psychological descent into grief, fixation, and the illusion of closure, a story about how love can curdle, how morality erodes, showing what remains when a man steps beyond the point of return.
