The idea of casting our novel was exciting for us. Nicole works in television and both Steph and Nicole come from visual backgrounds, so when we were writing The Family Tree, we both saw it as a movie in our heads. When the FBI show up on Liz’s doorstep and inform her she’s related to a serial killer, she must now decide if it’s safe to continue getting to know the few biological relatives she’s already tracked down or if she’s walking into the den of a killer. But during her journey to find her biological family, the FBI get a familial hit on her DNA to the notorious Tri-State Killer, who’s been abducting and murdering pairs of women for over 40 years. Here the authors dreamcast an adaptation of the new novel: The Family Tree centers around Liz Catalano who finds out from a 23andMe kit that she’s adopted. The Family Tree is the duo’s first crime novel. Separated by five states, they spend hours scheming via FaceTime and editing in real time on Google Docs. After Mullin relocated to Charlotte, NC in 2018, they continued to collaborate. They met as co-workers in New York City in 2012, discovering a shared passion for writing and true crime. Steph Mullin is a creative director and Nicole Mabry works in the photography department for a television network.
