Earlier this year I watched The Undoing, not realizing it was based on another of this author's amazing and captivating stories, You Should Have Known. Once I saw the connection, I couldn't wait to read this next release from someone who has become an original voice in some of my favorite recent reads.
The Plot is a suspenseful and tightly wound tale, highlighting a washed up author, teaching creative writing at a local college. When challenged by one of his current students, he makes a connection and hears an incredibly original story, sure to make this student a success. When he goes back to research if the student ever published his story, he quickly finds out he passed away shortly after completing the class. What follows is a story told, by this author, who quickly finds himself in the limelight again. With a whole new world of people who recognize him, he is surprised by a fan who seems to know more about the origins and background of the story than he bargained for.
A tightly developed storyline, that flows with each page turn, will make readers want to put the pieces together and get to the incredibly jaw dropping last word. This book is certain to be one of the most sought after reads of the year.
