On the dark side of the street


I have five published novels, the first pubbed in 2008, but written in 2004. Each of these novels is psychologically dark. Each narrator is unlikeable. Four years before Gone Girl, six years before Girl on a Train. The world, and its appetites, has come closer to what I like to do, and what I do best. Not thrillers, but dark psychological women's fiction.

I have not moved an inch. I have not cloaked my work in anything to be part of someone's trend. All my work is of a piece.

Whether you like it or not, whether it's stubborn or stupid or smart . . . I've stayed true. WHERE SHE WENT, coming out in October, is in my lane. If you like my lane, welcome. If not, at least recognize that it's mine.
