After a chance encounter with terrorism at JFK leaves her snapping photos instead of fleeing, celebrated novelist Marielle finds herself thrust into the Witness Protection program—stripped of her vibrant life and identity.
With only her cat for company, Marielle plans her comeback with a sensational novel—until she discovers a fraudulent "posthumous" book bearing her name. Breaking cover, Marielle embarks on a perilous quest for truth, enlisting the aid of an eclectic crew including a young musician, Buddhist monks, and her stalwart ex-lover, Fresh.
Against all odds, Marielle is determined to reclaim her name and her life in this thrilling story of courage, identity, and resilience.
“With more twists and turns than a coiled snake,
is also a deep examination of who we are and what happens to us when we can't be the person we thought we were. Both make this thriller hard to put down.” — J.M. Redmann, the Micky Knight mystery series
“Plucked out of her own life and plunged into witness-protection-program obscurity, Marielle Wing has the guts to activate her ire and her creative imagination to try to win back her name, all while discovering some rough truths about the life she left behind. She does this with the aid of one of the most deliciously irksome young women ever to appear on the page: Tuna, who might bring Marielle to new life if she doesn’t kill her first. Terry Wolverton’s
is a fun and subversively serious novel about finding yourself while losing yourself, in spite of yourself.” –David Groff, author of
“Terry Wolverton's
is a wild ride of a thriller, with a protagonist who's as lovable as she is flawed. Marielle Wing witnesses a bombing and then is forced to go into hiding, with several ensuing changes of location and identity. Who is a friend and who is a foe? We don't know until the exciting conclusion. Rooting for them all the way, we follow Marielle and her cat Dude through a maze of danger and conspiracy. Don't begin reading this book in the evening unless you plan to stay up all night!” — Alice Bloch,

is a thrill ride through the trust-no-one aftermath of a terrorist attack, and a meditation on the nature of self. Reading this novel is at once a shot of adrenaline and a deep, cleansing breath.” — Cheryl E. Klein, author,
“Who is Marielle Wing, and how does she stay ahead of an enemy that knows her every move and mistake? And as fragile relationships hang in the balance and close alliances shift, Marielle must test the limits of what she’s capable of to find the truth. This thrilling novel is one that you can't wait to find out what happens next, and yet, also want to read slowly and savor the delicious sentences. Will Marielle survive?” — Kathleen Brady, author,
“Marielle Wing’s journey reminds us that in a world where the worst of humanity is perpetually on display, the best is just as possible. A single act of violence can send your life spinning out of control. Strangers may take you in and bind your wounds, help make you whole again.” — Bronwyn Mauldin, author,
“Imagine everything about who you are is erased overnight? Your name, home, career, friends family – poof! Gone! This is exactly what happens to novelist and protagonist Marielle Wing after she witnesses a bombing at JFK airport and snaps a photo of one of the fleeing suspects. In short order, she is whisked by Homeland Security into Witness Protection against her will. Her obituary in the New York Times seals her fate. A suspenseful, moody, sharply layered story, Wolverton’s thrilling
is also a meditation on identity and breathtaking transformation.” —Elise D’Haene, author,
It’s the perfect thriller for readers who have a familiarity with the publishing industry, with plenty of familiar thriller tropes and coincidences recalibrated to fit the scale of a frustrated novelist’s life. It’s an offbeat premise, to be sure, and Wolverton manages to deliver across the board. A literary airport novel that flies its readers to unexpected destinations.—
