Although born in Toronto, Noelle spent most of her childhood living on farms in rural Ontario. At the age of sixteen Ms. Dubois longed for a more urban lifestyle, prompting her to move out on her own and obtain work in various fields. After working as a bartender and mixologist for a few years, Noelle received the opportunity and inspiration to begin a modeling career. Having finally found her proper niche in the entertainment industry, Noelle quickly burst onto the Toronto modeling scene. After a few years of full time work as a model, having many great opportunities and experiences along the way, she sought more challenging ventures in her life. In 2008, Noelle had the opportunity to work behind a different lens as an on-camera personality and immediately recognized acting as her next great challenge. Beginning with a few independent films, acting quickly became not only her passion, but also a means to continue challenging herself and a catalyst in her growth as a person. When she's away from set Noelle's hobbies include reading, horseback riding, cooking, jewelry making and psychological evaluation.
Jacob Finch Bonner was once a promising young novelist with a respectably published first book. Today, he’s teaching in a third-rate MFA program and struggling to maintain what’s left of his self-respect; he hasn’t written—let alone published—anything decent in years. When Evan Parker, his most arrogant student, announces he doesn’t need Jake’s help because the plot of his book in progress is a sure thing, Jake is prepared to dismiss the boast as typical amateur narcissism. But then . . . he hears the plot. Jake returns to the downward trajectory of his own career and braces himself for the supernova publication of Evan Parker’s first novel: but it never comes. When he discovers that his former student has died, presumably without ever completing his book, Jake does what any self-respecting writer would do with a story like that—a story that absolutely needs to be told. In a few short years, all of Evan Parker’s predictions have come true, but Jake is the author enjoying the wave. He is wealthy, famous, praised and read all over the world. But at the height of his glorious new life, an e-mail arrives, the first salvo in a terrifying, anonymous campaign: You are a thief, it says.
