This is truly AMAZING news!
Just learned that William has been chosen by the American Booksellers Association to be one of their Indie Next Picks for September! Only 25 titles in all genres — Fiction, Non-Fiction, Poetry, you name it — make the list so this is an astonishing recommendation for the book. And it comes from booksellers themselves. Which means so much more.
Thanks go out to Jason Kennedy at Boswell Book Company in Milwaukee for reading, picking, and doing the write up.
“A smart home turns into a house of horrors in this suspenseful outing… Coile expertly imagines the sort of ghoulish snares a cybernetic environment could spring upon its unprepared captives and throws in a late-inning explanation for the source of William’s apparent sociopathy that is as believable as it is chilling. It’s a frightening Frankenstein fable for the age of AI.”

My audio-only thriller, Oracle, is being developed for TV series by Amazon MGM Studios. The producers on the project are Jordan Feiner and 3 Arts Entertainment. You can listen to Oracle and Oracle 2 exclusively on Audible.
Here it is!
The cover design for William, the debut novel to be published under my sci-fi/thriller pen name, Mason Coile, is here. I’ve had many different responses to seeing covers for my books for the first time, but I don’t think I’ve ever loved one so immediately and intensely as this one. Thanks to everyone at Putnam for adapting the particular feel of the novel into an image that both invites and troubles.
William is out on September 3, 2024. But don’t let that stop you from pre-ordering!

I have a new novel coming out in 2024. It’s called William.
The twist in the plot is that it’s being published under a pseudonym, Mason Coile. Why? A few reasons, really. It’s a different sort of book for me — a thriller flavored with sci-fi and horror, and distinct in its structure (as you’ll see). I also have plans for a sequence of Mason Coile books that relate in a thematic way.
I’m excited to say that William is meeting with a lot of enthusiasm so far out there in Pre-Publication World: it has amazing editors and publishers in the US (Putnam), UK (John Murray/Baskerville), and multiple foreign translations at great houses already lined up.
I can also say that I haven’t been this psyched for a book to reach readers since, well, my first novel a long time ago. (Twenty-three years, but who’s counting?)
I invite you to track William as it makes its way into the world!
Happy New Year!
There’s a lot of exciting projects simmering away in my book kitchen, and I’m looking forward to sharing more details down the line. In the meantime, here’s wishing you a healthy and loving 2023…and the time to read your ass off.
Nate Russo is back! Oracle 2: The Dreamland Murders is the audio series I wrote starring Joshua Jackson and a truly amazing cast including Humberly Gonzalez and Devon Bostick. And it’s free with your Audible membership.
He’s back!
Excited to announce that, on May 18, Joshua Jackson returns as Nate Russo in ORACLE 2: THE DREAMLAND MURDERS. Along with a terrific, full cast including Humberly Gonzalez and Devon Bostick, ORACLE 2 is an original audio drama that I wrote as a follow-up to the audiobook.
ORACLE 2: THE DREAMLAND MURDERS is available only on Audible. But you can pre-order now!
Just saw the stats from Audible Canada for 2021 and my novel, Oracle, performed by Joshua Jackson, was the #1 title of the year!
Continue to be surprised — in the best of ways — by how this story and (I think more significantly) its main character, Nate Russo, connect with people.
Thanks for listening!
Excited to announce that a feature-length documentary (with fictionalized – and scary! – re-enactments) is coming to Discovery + where it launches on November 26.
Demon in the White House is inspired by the research I did for The Residence into the history of supernatural encounters in the presidential home. I also act as an Executive Producer on the project.
