So twisty!! It’s about an author who steals the plot idea of one of his former students who died. He thinks he got away with it (though is going crazy worrying he’ll be found out) when he gets a message saying they know he’s a thief. Even when you think you have this book figured out, it keeps surprising you! I talk more about this suspenseful literary thriller in this video, starting at 7:04: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gteNoLicGu0
