The Spare Room is coming your way in May!
Friends, I'm so excited to tell you about my forthcoming thriller, The Last Ferry Out: A Novel! It's coming out in May 2025 and I JUST turned in copyedits, so giveaways and review copies should start popping up soon.
I had so much fun writing this book—it's a queer mystery about a woman trying to get to the bottom of her fiancée's "accidental" death on a tiny island off Mexico. There are enigmatic expats, tight-lipped locals, creepy ruins, a mountainous wilderness preserve...all the good stuff! I sincerely hope you love it.
What should readers of my other books expect? Well, like We Were Never Here, The Last Ferry Out is a globe-trotting thriller set in a stunning foreign land…where the sun-splashed dream quickly becomes a nightmare. TLFO is packed with tension and complex group dynamics, and I think fans of my previous books will enjoy the messy, imperfect heroines and twisty narrative.
My latest novel, The Spare Room, was sexy domestic suspense all cloistered in a Gothic mansion. TLFO, on the other hand, is more of a traditional thriller and much more outdoorsy—it takes place on a sunny, mountainous, beach-lined island far from the protagonist’s Wisconsin home. I hope it’s escapist and transportive, a true vacation (and adrenaline rush!) for readers.
I gave this book a puzzle-box-like structure, with multiple narrators and timelines (including one in reverse chronological order), so the pieces slide into place at just the right moment. It was, well, a bit of a puzzle to put together, but I’m so happy with how it turned out!
ARCs for TLFO should be available in Jan/Feb 2025, and I'm so excited for you to step into the lush and mysterious world of Isla Colel with me. All aboard...
