Could you briefly describe the novel and what drew you to the story?ĭouble Helix (Dial, 2004) is a suspense thriller set in Cambridge, Massachusetts, a hotbed of companies doing work with genetic engineering, as well as a locale I know well. I last interviewed Nancy in 2001.įirst, let’s catch up on Double Helix (Dial, 2004).

Nancy’s latest titles are Black Mirror (Dial, 2001)( excerpt), Double Helix (Dial, 2004)( excerpt), and The Rules of Survial (Dial, 2006)( excerpt).

Nancy Werlin‘s debut novel, Are You Alone On Purpose? (Houghton Mifflin, 1994)( excerpt), was followed by two suspense thrillers, The Killer’s Cousin (Delacorte, 1998)( excerpt), which won the Edgar Award, and Locked Inside (Delacorte, 2000)( excerpt), which was an Edgar finalist and my favorite of her works.
