    Naples author’s second novel started with Oprah’s blessing
    Bestselling author Nathan Hill of Naples is a dogged researcher, something that traces back to his early years as a government reporter for the Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Gazette. His debut novel, The Nix, came from watching every documentary and reading every book he could find about the 1968 riots in Chicago, the defining backdrop to a tumultuous mother-son relationship.
