Some marriages are better left unseen.
That line sits at the center of The Overlook Wife, my debut psychological thriller under the MLJ Mysteries imprint. The novel follows Rena, a woman who drives a thousand miles to disappear, only to find that the quiet Adirondack town and the man she begins to trust may be far more dangerous than the life she left behind.
The book launches September 15, 2026.
