The Interview: A Twisted Psychological Thriller of Secrets, Obsession and Betrayal
An ambitious journalist. A famous author. A dangerous secret.
Franka Stone has built her fame on silence. For decades, the celebrated novelist has refused every interview—because what happened in India years ago must never be revealed. The truth would destroy everything she loves.
But when her grandson falls in love with Amy, a young journalist determined to make her name, the past begins to resurface. Amy is clever, persistent, and dangerously curious. What starts as a profile piece becomes an obsession—and the closer she gets to Franka’s hidden past, the more perilous the game becomes.
Now two women are locked in a deadly dance of ambition and truth. One seeks redemption, the other revenge. But in this story, only one will control the ending.
The Interview is a gripping women’s psychological thriller about family secrets, obsession, betrayal, and the high cost of truth—perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, Shari Lapena, and Alice Feeney.

About the author
Helga Zeiner
33 books185 followersHelga Zeiner is a German-born Canadian author. She left her home town Augsburg at the age of eighteen to explore the world. For the following fourteen years, she lived and worked in Australia and Asia before she married and settled in Canada.
All her stories have been inspired by her years of extensive travels. The reader can only guess which parts of her dramatic thrillers are based on real-life experiences or might be the product of her imagination.

Aside from writing, Helga loves reading, (anything but preferably dark and twisty), dogs, (all breeds and mixes but preferably Chow Chows), wine (preferably the bubbly kind), cooking and eating (preferably with good friends and family), and last but not least, her hubby Mani (no preference specified there—she loves everything about him).
