The Last Draft
When a Liverpool crime novelist starts receiving edits on a manuscript she has not shown anyone, the changes begin to predict real events in her life. At first the notes look like a cruel intrusion, then they start pointing toward a death she may have already helped cause. The closer she gets to the source, the less certain she becomes about what was written, what was remembered, and what was deliberately left out.
