The Right Time: Novel

The Right Time is a richly rewarding novel filled with heartbreak and betrayal, triumph and fulfillment. It tells the story of Alexandra Winslow, who was abandoned by her mother at age seven, finding solace in the mysteries she reads with her devoted father. She soon begins writing them herself, slowly graduating to dark, complex crime stories that reflect skill, imagination, and talent far beyond her years. After her father’s untimely death, at fourteen Alex is taken in by the nuns of a local convent, where she finds twenty-six mothers to take the place of the one she lost, and the time and encouragement to pursue her gift. Writing in every spare moment, Alex is gripped by the plots and characters that fill her mind. She manages to find a seasoned agent, then a publisher and climbs the ladder of publishing success while resolutely adhering to her father’s admonition: Men read crime thrillers by men only. She publishes under the pseudonym Alexander Green, creating a double life that isolates her. Her secret life exposes her to the envious, the arrogant, and Hollywood players who have no idea who she really is, and the right time to open up seems just out of reach. Once her double life and fame are established, the price of the truth is always too high.
