The Novelists

By Joanne DeMaio

From New York Times bestselling author Joanne DeMaio comes The Novelists, Book 28 of The Seaside Saga.

Maris and Neil. To many, they're known as the novelists of Stony Point. But while Maris is tasked with completing Neil Barlow's unfinished manuscript, there's a problem. She's stymied by the ending. It's clear her old friend had something in mind-but what? In this New England beach town, Neil's ghost is ever elusive.

Or is it? Because after a startling confession one evening, Neil unexpectedly returns to Maris-and Jason especially-in an entirely new way. A way that brings a stunning plot twist to Maris and Neil's manuscript, as well as to Jason Barlow's life.

And The Seaside Saga continues.
