Picking up printed first draft, Summer 2020

Suspense Novel



This summer I finished the first draft of what I hope will be my debut novel and I have been chipping away at it since then. I’m at the querying stage, and can’t wait to share updates on how that goes.

Without telling you too much (it is a suspense novel after all), the book I’ve been writing is about family secrets, and follows 31-year-old Rachel, as she returns home to uncover the real truth behind the death of her stepfather and disappearance of her little sister fifteen years ago.
