After her father's early 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. As she climbs the ladder of publishing success, however, she does so with her father's admonition firmly in mind: men read crime stories by men, only--and so Alexandra Winslow publishes under the pseudonym Alexander Green, her true identity known only to a few close associates. Moving from Alex's childhood to her forties, through loss and triumph, the inner workings of the publishing world and Hollywood adaptations--with the truth behind the celebrated Alexander Green concealed at all costs. 000811942 650_0 $$aWomen authors$$vFiction. 000811942 650_0 $$aCrime writing$$vFiction. 000811942 650_0 $$aAnonyms and pseudonyms$$vFiction. 000811942 650_0 $$aAbsentee mothers$$vFiction. 000811942 655_7 $$aRomance fiction.$$2lcgft 000811942 85280 $$bpopro$$hSteel 000811942 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:811942$$pGLOBAL_SET 000811942 980__ $$aBIB 000811942 980__ $$aBOOK
