LAURA LIPPMAN talks to Paul Burke about her new novel DREAM GIRL, Baltimore, #Me TOO and racism and why being a writer is a little like playing for a living.
DREAM GIRL: Gerry Anderson has been having trouble sleeping. He's unwell - bed-bound - and has only his night nurse and his personal assistant for company. But what's really troubling him are the phone calls. Phone calls from a woman claiming to be the 'real' Aubrey.
But that can't be. Aubrey's just a character Gerry made up in a book, years ago.
Can Gerry see past the ever-blurring lines of fact and fiction and figure out who is threatening him, or has his long-overdue moment of reckoning finally arrived?
