Author Melissa Albert stopped by our headquarters to discuss The Children, her new literary thriller. The conversation was pure magic—with detours through family mythology, fairytales, and the mysteries of memory. Guinevere and her brother grew up as the inspiration for their mother's beloved children's books. But when her brother launches a provocative art exhibit about their family, Guinevere is forced to confront the dark, painful reality behind her mother's fairytales.
