THE HOLE is a psychological thriller set in the fictional, corrupt city of Jaytown. When mastermind Lucas Stillwell manipulates two class mates, Joanna Carver and Zion Makeda, to murder their math teacher, there is no turning back from the chaos that develops. Delving into cults, tragic pasts, societal oppression, and more, THE HOLE is an intense, addictive story that moves with a driving force. With harrowing twists and turns, deep and full of witty character voices, this novel makes one question the fine line between guilt and innocence. The three main characters -- obsessive friends and anti-heroes -- will not be forgotten. It is a pulsing, smart, slick story that rises and falls with gutsy moves.
Personal note to the reader: I am definitely thrilled to share my latest creation with you. It is absolutely my best work to date. For this one, I let go entirely...no holding back. I didn't think about who might read it or what might sell. I just dug in. I really honed in on voice with this one, and the characters are deep, rich, and real, as well as chilling. I also dove more into societal influences than I usually do, and the entire experience felt strong and brave. In this fictional town, nothing's ever certain. Truly, THE HOLE has risen out of many years of hard work and painstaking research. To develop the characters and story, I read a multitude of books (some would seem unexpected), listened to hundreds of podcasts, studied many films, talked with several formerly incarcerated individuals (one friend was exonerated after time on death row), studied Twitter accounts (some would seem surprising), interviewed numerous folks, paid close attention to those around me and took notes, wrote and wrote, edited and edited, formatted and formatted again. It has been a long time coming. So I am ecstatic to finally have it out there. Last night, I got choked up.You better believe it.
Tell your friends...I am the sole creator, writer, and editor of THE HOLE and all of my books. I also handled all interior design for the paperback and Ebook, as well as the cover art. In addition, all promotion is my baby as well. So, word of mouth is my friend, as this is an entirely independent effort.
