Hi, my name is Jodie Kelly, and I am the author behind 'A Lifetime Ago: The Disappearance of Florence Rivera.' The book tells the fictional mystery of a Hollywood icon and how, in the late 60s, at the peak of her fame, she seemingly vanished into thin air. Her immediate absence was noticed and mourned by the world, but within a few years, her name was nothing more than a distant memory.
But nearly 60 years later, art student Harlow Robinson refuses to accept the narrative that Rivera simply left her world behind one day. Obsessed with uncovering the truth, she reaches out to those who knew the star best: Her loyal best friend, a rival actress, her lover, and somebody who Harlow's still trying to figure out. As more and more is revealed, one question remains... What happened to Florence Rivera, and why?
Later in 2026, I hope to release my second novel, 'Dear Winnie, Before I forget.' Audrey's life has never been simple, despite how hard she tries to make it. After being diagnosed with dementia, she writes a series of letters to her young granddaughter, Winnie, hoping that, despite her condition, she never feels like a stranger to the young girl.
