Jane, I'm thoroughly enjoying reading Duplicity and plan to read other books by you; but a few things I've noticed in the free copy you sent me: 1) On page 117 you talk about Rossi's "3 year old daughter" and on page 145, you say "she wouldn't live to see her third birthday". Also earlier you said Rossi's daughter was only 2 years old. 2) Page 43: " Twyla's tosses her pink, " shouldn't it just be Twyla?

Hi Paula,
Thank you for your question, and I’m so glad to hear that you are enjoying reading Duplicity!
Great editorial catches on your end! You have an early, uncorrected proof of the book, an advanced reader copy, so there can be uncaught typos in there. Hopefully, every error will be picked up by the time the final version of the book comes out on March 28, 2017. But thank you for bringing this to my attention. As an author, any errors in my work make me cringe (when I send my manuscripts to my editor, I always have a horrible fear that I’ve made some kind of glaring error!), but luckily, there are many sets of eyes on my work to save me from myself!
Thank you again for your message. Happy New Year and happy reading!
Jane
