Every writer has a story. Some are deadlier than others.
Aspiring author Graye Templeton will do anything to escape the horrific childhood crime that haunts her. After a life lived in shadows, she’s accepted a new job as protégé to Laura West, influential book blogger and wife of an acclaimed novelist. Laura’s connections could make Graye’s publishing dreams a reality. But there’s more to Laura than meets the eye.
Behind the veneer of a charmed life, Laura’s marriage is collapsing. Her once-lauded husband is descending into alcoholism and ruin and bringing Laura nearer to the edge.
As the two women form a bond that seems meant to be, long-buried secrets claw their way into the present, and the line between friendship and obsession begins to blur, forcing each to decide where her loyalties lie. Running from the past is a dangerous game, and the loser could end up dead.
Eliza Maxwell has done it again! Author of the incredible, dark, and thought provoking The Unremembered Girl, now she brings us an inky tale so shocking, it will keep you up at night thinking about it.
The Shadow Writer is an extraordinary, fast pace, whirlwind of a story! It will take you by storm and set you leaping through the pages. What is more exciting than murder, mystery, suspense, and the kind of dark, gut wrenching story that The Shadow Writer delivers.
The story follows Graye Templeton, an aspiring author that is the TA to a professor that has written a book, and Laura West, the wife of the professor. Graye Templeton becomes fast friends with Laura. Graye is trying hard to keep the past in the past, even though it’s trying it’s hardest to find her, and to reveal all it’s grim secrets.
This story is about so much more than a tragic past, and horrific truths. It’s about a friendship that runs deeper than blood. It’s about realizing all the truths about oneself, the good and the bad. And above all, it’s about fulfilling your dreams, no matter the costs.
Maxwell delivers us such astounding characters. The kind that despite their darkness, despite their drive, they intrigue and fascinate you. They will pull you right in with their cleverness!
I simply could not put The Shadow Writer down. And to top it all off, who doesn’t love a good story that leaves you asking “What was that?” And you answer… “well, that was… AWESOME!”
