Have questions? Check out Sylvia’s Blacklist Blog where she dives into how she switched genres for Blacklist, and also explores the story and characters: “In Blacklist, I let my characters be utterly human, with terrible traits, selfish dreams, and reckless ambition. Women are so often celebrated for being nurturers, mediators, and caregivers. But we’re also extremely dangerous, and I think that’s worth acknowledging and celebrating, too.”

More questions? We have answers in the Blacklist FAQ.
