Gila Green, the author of six novels, presents her latest work With A Good Eye, a coming-of-age thriller featuring a daring heroine who must navigate life with her always-on-stage actress mother and PTSD-stricken father.

Dear Tara,
Nice to hear from you. My forthcoming novel is a sequel to No Entry. My inspiration remains the same: to draw attention to the slaughter of animals to the point of extinction that is ongoing and to thread the needle between elephant poaching and terrorism.
