Eddy Arias Releases Debut Novella Alicia: A Literary Mystery of Control, Motherhood, and Disappearance

Timed for Release During Hispanic Heritage Month, Eddy Arias Releases Debut Novella Alicia: A Literary Mystery of Control, Motherhood, and Hidden Fractures in a Marriage.
MIAMI, FL - September 16, 2025 - Filmmaker and media executive Eddy Arias makes his literary debut with Alicia , a psychologically rich mystery about control, motherhood, and the hidden fractures in a marriage, brought to the surface when the woman carrying their child vanishes days before giving birth.

Timed for release during Hispanic Heritage Month, the novella is available now for pre-order on Amazon and releasing September 30.

Alicia elevates Latin American voices and experiences through a morally complex story set on Manhattan's Upper East Side. Claire and Andrew Cooper have everything: wealth, status, and a pristine apartment curated down to the scent. The only thing missing is a child. When IVF fails, Claire proposes an illegal solution: hire their housekeeper, Alicia, as a surrogate.

As the pregnancy progresses, Claire tightens her grip, Andrew begins to drift, and Alicia, seemingly compliant, starts to shift in unexpected ways. Then, without warning, she is gone, setting off a search that will expose more than one kind of loss.

With echoes of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland reimagined through the lens of modern immigration and female agency, Alicia is an unforgettable story about borders - of the body, the law, and the self - and what happens when they're crossed.

"The story was born from three ideas that wouldn't let go," Arias writes in his author's note. "Losing control and the struggle to live without it. The reality of undocumented immigration. And the desire to reimagine Alice's Adventures in Wonderland in a darker adult world, where Wonderland isn't fantasy, but today's New York City, and the story is told from the Queen of Hearts' point of view."

With slow-burning suspense and cinematic intensity, Alicia is a character-driven psychological drama about the choices that shape who we become, meant to be read in a single sitting and felt long after.
