How Annette Lyon Went from Writing Sweet Romance to Suspense

Essay about how the shift to writing suspense might not be as surprising as it might first appear. 

Published in CrimeReads on 21 March, 2023


Q&A with Tara Laskowski in her What Scares You Series. In her words:

“In reading through Annette Lyon’s answers to my interview questions, I was struck at how many of her fears are so specific to motherhood. I very much identified with a lot of them myself. There’s both the fear that many parents share–that something bad will happen to your child–but also more complex variations on that theme: I won’t survive to have kids or I won’t be able to get back to my children or see them again. All of these resonated with me on a core level.”

The Little Lessons Podcast with Meghan Mitchell

Meet my new friend, Annette Lyon. Annette is an award-winning author (seriously, lots of awards) and all-around amazing gal! We are connected through some other venues, but this is the first time that we’ve had the chance to actually talk to each other, and it was amazing! One of my favorite things that we talk about is how she realized early on in her writing career that she is a better wife, mother, and human if she is feeding her soul by writing and improving her talents. That is such an important realization for women, to know that their talents and interests should not be put on the back burner. We also discuss her connection to her Finnish heritage and refrigerator magnets.

Kirkus

The transparency and straightforward structure of the prolific Lyon’s first thriller are key to its potency. Two intimate first-person narratives run on parallel tracks, and suspense is added drop by drop against a backdrop of female bonding and contemporary women’s issues.… Crisp, compelling … executed with finesse.”

Cynthia Swanson, New York Times bestselling author of The Bookseller and The Glass Forest

Annette Lyons’s Just One More is a fast-paced thriller featuring shocking discoveries, a heart-rending besties relationship, and deep questions about how far we’ll go to protect those we love.

Robison Wells, author of the New York Times bestselling thriller The Warning

With an intense exploration of character and settings that will transport you to another time and place, [Annette Lyon] is one of the best writers working today. She never disappoints.

—Karen Dionne, #1 internationally bestselling author of The Marsh King’s Daughter and The Wicked Sister

Annette Lyon’s Just One More is the ultimate thrill ride; a heart-pounding, terrifying page-turner that grabbed me from the opening paragraphs and didn’t let go until the final sentences. Don’t think you know how this plays out; just put yourself in Lyon’s eminently capable hands and enjoy the ride!

Mandy McHugh, author of Chloe Cates Is Missing

A gripping mind-twist of a read that you won’t be able to put down. Expertly-woven perspectives keep the action moving and tension high—an unpredictable ride to the very last page. Crisp, clever, and utterly engrossing, Just One More is a must read.

Kerry Lonsdale, Wall Street Journal bestselling author of the No More Trilogy

What a ride! Annette Lyon takes ‘It’s always the husband’ to the next level in this tension-filled, page-turning suspense. Cleverly crafted with alternating points-of-view and timelines, reading Just One More is like watching a scandalous, pulse-pounding movie you can’t turn away from.
