Spoiler alert: “Jake Maddox” is not a real person. Writers are hired for each book in the series, which is united by a single name–-Jake Maddox–-for branding. I was hired to write Gymnastics Payback for the Jake Maddox Mysteries series. It releases August 1, 2021. My name and bio are inside the book, so the writer does get credit, but the rights remain with the publisher since it was a work-for-hire project. I hope readers enjoy Gymnastics Payback!
