A ticket includes a signed copy of the book. ABOUT THE BOOK James Frey, the literary force hailed as “America’s Most Notorious Author” (TIME) and the “Bad Boy of American Literature” (The New York Times), returns with his latest tour de force: NEXT TO HEAVEN, a darkly funny, razor-sharp thriller that peels back the gilded surface of America’s wealthiest enclaves. This incendiary novel delivers an addictive and voyeuristic plunge into a world where privilege, scandal, and moral decay intertwine, culminating in betrayal, chaos, and murder. Welcome to New Bethlehem, Connecticut—a town of immaculate lawns, sprawling mansions, and the illusion of perfection. Beneath the designer yoga sets and curated Instagram lives, however, lies a darker truth. At the heart of the story are Devon and Belle: beautiful, wealthy, and unsatisfied. Desperate to feel something beyond the monotony of luxury, they orchestrate an exclusive party for New Bethlehem’s elite—a spectacle of opulence and indulgence designed to push boundaries. The guest list is a who’s who of moral compromise: an ex-NFL quarterback clawing at relevance, a hockey coach with a weakness for forbidden affairs, and a Wall Street predator who treats wealth as a weapon. With biting wit and unflinching precision, Frey takes readers on a satirical thrill ride through the dark heart of privilege. Fans of The White Lotus and Big Little Lies will find themselves captivated by the twists and turns of a narrative that exposes the treachery behind the American Dream. But this is more than just a story—it’s an experience only Frey can deliver. His ability to illuminate the dangerous allure of wealth while reveling in its seductive pull makes NEXT TO HEAVEN as thrilling as it is provocative. Frey doesn’t just write about this world; he lives at its edges, channeling its contradictions into a story that is as exhilarating as it is unsettling. NEXT TO HEAVEN is a novel that proves once again why James Frey remains one of the most daring voices in modern fiction.
