The Understudy

She wrote the Booker-shortlisted novel. He took the credit. For three years Nora Ash has ghostwritten four critically acclaimed literary novels for reclusive superstar Elias Kane - bound by a ruthless NDA, invisible wire transfers, and the crushing weight of someone else's name on her work. When her latest book rockets onto the Booker shortlist, a single handwritten inscription shatters the silence: "Nora - it is yours."Suddenly a journalist is calling, her family is demanding the truth, and the man who stole her words is offering the one thing she never expected - an on-the-record confession.
A razor-sharp, emotionally explosive literary thriller about authorship, identity, betrayal, and the fierce courage it takes to finally claim your name. Perfect for fans of The Plot and The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo.
