What if, on the night of August 5, 1962, Marilyn Monroe didn’t die?
What if she got away? Because all she ever dreamed of was to disappear and have a child.

Marilyn Monroe would have turned 100 on June 1, 2026, and the world is preparing for a massive centennial celebration with official festivals and events focusing on her enduring impact on film, fashion, and culture. And then there’s Lois Cahall’s new novel...Maybe Marilyn...

Marilyn Monroe’s housekeeper, Eunice Murray, and her psychiatrist, Dr. Ralph Greenson, were supposedly the only two people to ever see her dead. Five hours elapsed between the time they found Marilyn’s body and the authorities were contacted. These facts beg the question: Why was the house rearranged, phone records seized, and evidence destroyed? Was her suicide staged?

Set in 2019, this is a novel about Marilyn Monroe the survivor instead of Marilyn Monroe the victim. When two young reporters get the tip of a lifetime, they go on an elusive search to find her—and learn a thing or two about history in the process. Whether they find Marilyn or not remains to be seen, but what they do find is her granddaughter—alive and well—living up on Cape Cod.

Biographers have long claimed that there is a world of devoted fans who hunger to bring their idol back to life. Their hunger has never waned. Nor have the flawed reports.… #MarilynLives
