Madeleine Roux Thanks for your question--I have a personal policy of not answering things like this because I think it's better left to the reader's imagination. In general, I don't like to add or retcon things from my books after they are published--if it didn't make it in the finished version, then it's up to the reader to decide their interpretation.
Madeleine Roux I would love to see any of my books on the big screen, but it's not really something I get to determine! Adaptations are massively expensive and require experienced producers and a team with funding to get off the ground. I've come close a few times but it's exceptionally rare for a book adaptation to actually make it to the screen. I'll keep hoping!

Madeleine Roux Billie was my first choice, when she agreed to the project and the scheduling lined up I was thrilled. She's unbelievably talented, and I'm so glad you enjoyed her performance as much as I did!

Madeleine Roux It's fiction. Many of the characters and events are inspired by true events, but the story is fictional. The photos are largely taken from archives, and are real, and some were staged to fit the plot of the novel.

Madeleine Roux Sorry, Carly, I won't be doing your book report for you.

Madeleine Roux Thanks for reading! House of Furies is a trilogy, the third and final book, Tomb of Ancients, will be released on May 14th!
Madeleine Roux At this point, no, I wouldn't. I won't say never, but the series feels complete to me, and I personally don't like when a series goes on for too long.
