Lock Her Up

Small_Orange_View_Book

“Elizabeth Searle gracefully walks the knife’s edge between wild satire and ripped-from-the-headlines realism.”

Tom Perrotta, Author of Ghost Town, The Leftovers, Little Children, Election

________________

“What does it mean—and sometimes dearly cost—to be family? Searle’s timely and terrifying thriller finds a liberal so-called “nasty woman” grappling with her husband’s far-right family, only to find herself accused of murder. A brilliantly written, hot-coal read that ignites its first flame on page one, escalating until you literally cannot breathe from the suspense.” 

Caroline Leavitt, NYT Bestselling Author; Days of Wonder; Pictures of You

________________

Elizabeth Searle is a true original. Her work is witty, wise, and full of brilliant observations. As one would expect from a gifted screenwriter, she writes dialogue to die for and knows how to pace a story. But above all, Searle captures the absurdity and dread of contemporary life in work that is as rich as it is disquieting. 

JJ Amaworo Wilson, author of Nazaré

‘LOCK HER UP

“Elizabeth Searle thrusts us into contemporary American xenophobia’s belly with Lock Her Up, a searing thriller … Thelma & Louise reimagined through intersectional feminism.”

Adrian Perez, Director of Lonely Wolf International Film Festival, writing in Film Daily
