A family died in a fire in Florida nearly twenty years ago. What really happened? And who was the daughter, Marianne?

Radio journalist Eric, still waiting for his big scoop and his Pulitzer Prize, decides to uncover the truth – or at least get as close to it as possible. Unfortunately, the hunt is complicated by red herrings, a former FBI agent with a runaway gambling addiction, secret identities, and a car left abandoned along the California coastline. And perhaps, even by Eric’s own family.

Marianne? is a novel about true crime and the most challenging relationships of all, the overwhelming weight of loving those closest to us. Told with Frid's signature humor and sharpness.

To be published in November, 2026.
