Greer Hendricks We are so glad you enjoyed the book. We tend to lean more towards psychological mayhem vs. physical. If you read our first collaboration, THE WIFE BETWEEN US there is some physical violence, but again it's more emotional. We do love to create visceral, palpable tension and are so happy that worked for you.
Greer Hendricks Thank you so much! We are absolutely planning to continue to write together. In fact we are currently hard at work on book 3 and the screenplay for THE WIFE BETWEEN US, which was acquired by Steven Spielberg's Amblin Entertainment.
Greer Hendricks Thank you so much. Unlike any other writing duo that I know of, Sarah and I write every line together. We write daily (Monday-Friday) barring disasters with kids or dogs! Basically we are on google docs and google hangouts from 9-4 discussing each character, each scene and writing. On off hours (earlier or later) we will go into our manuscript separately and add edits in "suggested" mode.

Greer Hendricks Thank you! Please check out our first book, THE WIFE BETWEEN US. It spent nearly three month on the NY Times bestsellers list and has been optioned by Steven Spielberg's Amblin Entertainment. It just pubbed in paperback.
Greer Hendricks Sarah and I both studied journalism and psychology, which makes us curious students of human nature. Our goal was to write a psychological page-turner - one as twisty, complex, and fresh as possible. We are both drawn to strong, complicated female protagonists. There are rules to standard thrillers and mysteries, but since neither of us had written one, we didn’t know what the rules were - or that we would end up breaking them. Ultimately we wanted to explore how memories are colored by the lenses through which we view our worlds - and how people can share an experience but carry away markedly different perspectives and emotions. Hope this helps!
Greer Hendricks Thank you so much for your kinds words. Sarah and I have another psychological thrilled, An Anonymous Girl, pubbing on January 8th! We are hard at work on a 3rd right now, as well as writing the screenplay for The WIFE BETWEEN US.

Greer Hendricks Wow! Thank you so much. Sarah and I do try and write daily (Monday-Friday) barring disasters with kids or dogs! Basically we are on google docs and google hangouts from 9-4. On off hours (earlier or later) we will go into our manuscript separately and add edits in "suggested" mode. Although as we race to the finish line on our new book we've been putting in extra hours.
Greer Hendricks Thank you so much. Our next book is tentatively scheduled for January 2019! Sarah and I are madly trying to finish our first draft this week. It's another psychological thriller with strong female protagonists.
