About This Novel
Facing the pressure from society and family, would you choose to marry the person you love or continue to wait for the right person? Katie, who is young, beautiful and vain, chose the former, but was captured by a smooth-talking married man soon after her marriage. She thought she had met true love, so she risked her life, like a moth to a flame. But when the veil is lifted, her illusions are shattered by the truth. For the first time in her life, she began to reflect and grow; perhaps, her mistakes and follies, and the misfortunes she suffered were not in vain, and would eventually lead her to find a way to inner peace. "The Veil" not only presents the bad aspects of love and marriage - betrayal, indifference, suspicion, revenge, but also the uneasiness and self-salvation in the face of life changes. If you understand "The Veil", you will understand yourself.
