Jennifer Herrera, THE HUNTER

Zibby interviews literary agent and debut author Jennifer Herrera about The Hunter, an expertly plotted, richly atmospheric, and truly haunting suspense novel about a detective who loses her job and her husband and is forced to move back to her small Ohio hometown, where three men have suspiciously drowned. Jennifer discusses the themes she loved exploring: broken marriages, tricky adult sibling relationships, and reversed gender stereotypes (hence a detective with a very intuitive female sense of the world and three male victims!). She also talks about her career in publishing, the books she’s currently reading, and how she balances motherhood, a full-time job, writing, and promoting this book (she just had an event at Zibby's Bookshop in Santa Monica with Ana Reyes!!).
