ⓘ About Laura Dave

Laura Dave’s most popular novel “The Last Thing He Told Me” has its roots with the author’s early obsession with the Enron Scandal. She always wondered what would happen when we prefer to trust the people in our circles rather than look at the evidence. She once watched the interview of the wife of Kenneth Lay, the former CEO of Enron who insisted that her husband was innocent. She started wondering if people could be blinded by the fact of their relationship with someone even if the evidence was contrary to what they believed. For more than fifteen years after watching that interview, she wrote gnarly ten drafts over several thousand words but it was not until 2018 that she finally started gaining some traction.
