Well, you were right (thriller readers are the smartest!) and she is back this October 28th in The Bone Thief, but this time, instead of rural Oklahoma (where I'm from), the story is all set in Rhode Island (where I live now).

“This is probably the advice I didn’t want to hear, but it’s held true: just keep writing. No path is smooth or certain, but if you focus on your writing, you’ll be happier for it. Also, as much as you can, connect with other writers and readers. From Twitter to Instagram to in-person events, readings, and conferences, book people are the best people, and the more support you can gather and give, the happier you’ll be.”
