I am beyond thrilled (and a little in shock, if I’m honest!) to announce that Anywhere But Here is climbing the charts on Amazon—and I owe so much of that momentum to the Psychological Thriller Readers Facebook Group. Y’all showed up for Dr. Nia Wallace, a brilliant geneticist navigating far more than just her family tree, and gave her the spotlight she deserves. She’s not just a pretty face. She’s a mind. A mystery. A survivor.

This book started out as a standalone—just a twisted little tale about ancestry, identity, and a town that’s too perfect to be real. But after seeing the response from readers who are decoding the clues, dissecting the architecture of Darbonne, and connecting the dots I’ve hidden in the margins… I’m thinking we may not be done here.

Could there be a prequel in the works? Maybe. Let’s just say: where the wind may blow, I’ll follow.

If you’ve read Anywhere But Here, you know it’s the kind of story that leaves you turning pages late into the night, second-guessing every welcome smile and historic plaque. And if you haven’t read it yet? Now is the perfect time to join the conspiracy. There are easter eggs scattered throughout the book—hidden notes, throwaway lines, and symbols that come full circle in the final chapters. You might even want to reread with fresh eyes.

Big news: a hardcover edition is coming soon, featuring updated formatting and a premium matte cover. I’m also working on a book club guide for the paperback editions, so you can discuss all those plot twists with your friends, theories in hand!

Thank you for believing in this story, for letting Darbonne into your mind, and for giving Nia Wallace a chance to uncover the truth—even if it means she may never leave.
