Woman Down: A Novel

Description

Woman Down is a psychological thriller that blurs the line between fiction and reality, fame and infamy.

Petra Rose was once a literary darling—until the screen adaptation of her bestselling novel tanked and the internet turned on her. Branded a fraud and creatively bankrupt, Petra retreats to a remote lakeside cabin to salvage her career and rediscover her voice. But isolation doesn’t bring peace—it brings Detective Nathaniel Saint.

Saint arrives with unsettling news and an even more unsettling presence. As Petra begins to write again, her fictional detective starts to resemble the real one a little too closely. Their late-night “research” sessions ignite a dangerous chemistry, and Petra finds herself caught between inspiration and obsession.

But when Saint’s involvement starts to feel less like collaboration and more like control, Petra must confront the story she’s been writing—on the page and in her life. Is she the author of her own redemption, or just another character in someone else’s twisted plot?
