Great Big Beautiful Life
Alice Scott, a sunny staff writer hungry for a serious book, tracks reclusive heiress Margaret Ives to Little Crescent Island off the Georgia coast. Pulitzer winner Hayden Anderson is already in the living room. Margaret offers both of them a paid month of interviews, an ironclad NDA, and only pieces of a century-long family story — then lets the wanting between the two writers become part of the mystery. Henry's 2025 novel is a slow-burn romance braided with a media dynasty's secrets: who gets to tell a life, who gets protected from it, and what a story costs the people living inside it.
“There's an old saying about stories, and how there are always three versions of them: yours, mine, and the truth.”
