After all, Tempe wants answers: Elysea was responsible for the death of their parents.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY:Four Dead Queenswas one of the years breakout YA debuts.
How did you feel about the response?
Was it unexpected?Definitely unexpected!
Its been a surreal few months where Ive often had to pinch myself.
My aim was to write an immersive read with characters that readers will love or love to hate!
and a build a world they never want to leave.
Its a lot of work going from high-concept standalone to high-concept standalone.
And inThe Vanishing Deep, what if you could revive your deceased loved one for 24 hours?
How did the writing experience ofFour Dead Queensinform your next book?
The idea stuck with me and I wrote it in my journal back in 2015.
Youre exploring the strength of sisterhood in this novel.
What about that theme appealed to you?
Sisters can often have a complicated relationship, and this is also the case for Tempe and Elysea.
How would you describeThe Vanishing Deeps pace, especially coming off such a breakneck debut?
InThe Vanishing Deep, time is the real villain of the story.
Ultimately, I hope that readers find themselves lost in the beautiful but deadly world of The Vanishing Deep.
