Krysten Ritter may have been busy with "Jessica Jones" but the actress also found time to write her first novel.
The star has penned a psychological thriller named "Bonfire," about an environmental lawyer tackling company officials accused of dumping toxic waste, reported Entertainment Weekly.
"As a huge fan of psychological suspense novels, I was so thrilled to take on the challenge of writing my first book," said Ritter in a statement.
"This was an exciting opportunity for me to explore a character journey and really get inside the head of my protagonist, a process that has a lot in common with how I prepare to play a role."
The novel will be published by Crown Archetype, and is scheduled for release on November 7.
Ritter isn't the first actress to turn author - Julianne Moore and Julie Andrews both have their own collections of children's books, while Lauren Graham and Gillian Anderson have also found success writing novels.
