What if you knew exactly how much time you had left to live?

In her latest romance-thriller, The Life Experiment, author Jess Kitching explores a profound and provocative question through the story of two unlikely souls: a driven corporate lawyer and a privileged bachelor. Brought together by a controversial social study that predicts the exact date of a participant’s death, their connection sparks something unexpected—love on a ticking clock.

As their connection draws stronger and their time runs shorter, the couple are forced to ask: if you knew when your life would end, how would you choose to live?

Jess Kitching spoke with producer Nate Wenke in an extended interview about her new release, sharing her thoughts on the moral dilemma and her writing process.
