It was a dark and stormy night (well, it was actually an unusually warm evening in Edinburgh, Scotland) when Number One Sunday Times bestselling author V.E. Schwab, known for The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue and Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil, proposed an absurd idea to longtime friend and screenwriter Cat Clarke: that they should write a book together. Victoria had made quite a name for herself, but had sworn she'd never co-write a novel.
While Cat, following a tumultuous career as an editor and the author of several YA novels, including Girlhoodand Entangled, had fled the publishing industry to work in the even more tumultuous film industry, swearing she'd never return to books.
And yet, fate - and an irresistible idea - made liars of them both.
That night, Evelyn Clarke was born.
