MFOB featured book: The Sequel
Anna Williams-Bonner has taken care of business. That is to say, she’s taken care of her husband, best-selling novelist Jacob Finch Bonner, and laid to rest those anonymous accusations of plagiarism that so tormented him. Now she is living the contented life of a literary widow, enjoying her husband’s royalty checks in perpetuity, but for the second time in her life, a work of fiction intercedes. After all, how hard can it really be to write a universally lauded best seller?
The Sequel gives readers an antihero to root for while illuminating and satirizing the world of publishing in this deliciously fun and suspenseful read.
