Jan Ellison’s A SMALL INDISCRETION was reviewed in Oprah’s newsletter and The Rumpus, which said, “Ellison’s first novel is an emotional thriller, skillfully plotted in taut, visual scenes. The stakes are high from the start… As Ellison pulls the thread that unravels the past, she weaves a rich tapestry of memory and desire, secrets and omissions, and exposes the knotted wages of love… A Small Indiscretion resolves in an astonishing plot twist that offers both destruction and self-discovery.” Random House published the book on January 27, 2015.
