The sequel

Not many first-time novelists get a profile in the New York Times. Then again, few first-time novelists come with the backstory of an Anna Williams-Bonner: recent bride of a wildly successful novelist who took his own life even as his fame seemed on the ascent. As her own book climbs the besteller list, it seems not all the attention is focused on Anna's literary merit. Threats begin arriving, hinting at a dark secret in Anna's past. With her reputation - and potentially her life - on the line, is there anything Anna won't do to protect herself?
