Author: Jane Green

Jane Green writes contemporary women's fiction about marriage, reinvention, friendship, and the pressures hidden beneath comfortable lives. Saving Grace centers on Grace Chapman, a skilled cook married to celebrated novelist Ted Chapman, whose volatile moods have shaped their household for years. When Ted's trusted assistant leaves, the efficient Beth enters their lives and gradually takes control of his schedule, work, and confidence. Grace's increasing confusion turns the domestic drama into psychological suspense as she tries to protect her reputation, marriage, and sense of reality. St. Martin's Press published Saving Grace: A Novel in 2014, extending Green's long career after she moved from newspaper features to fiction. Green also reads the Macmillan Audio edition, bringing an author's familiarity to Grace's guarded perspective. The novel combines Green's established attention to family relationships with a darker study of emotional abuse, manipulation, and the difficult work of recognizing danger inside an apparently successful home.
