Are you ever going to let you readers know who you killed off in United We Spy but decided not to in the end?

Asked by bc-books

I suppose I can now tell you that in the early versions of UNITED WE SPY  Preston died. And he died bloody.

Perhaps some day I will talk about it more—explain the whole subplot that led to that and why I decided that it wasn’t the correct ending for the series.

Basically, my brilliant editor read the book and, like me, felt like something was…off. We decided that the ending should be Cam and crew facing off against the series’s ultimate villain: Catherine. So I made this massive change at the 11th hour, and it was absolutely, 100% the right call.

Because editors are brilliant, and authors are smart to always at least consider what they have to say.

So…yeah. Preston DID die. But then he didn’t.

YOU’RE WELCOME!
