Following their own investigation, the State of Alabama has found that author Harper Lee is in good enough condition to have agreed to the publication of Go Set A Watchman.

After Lee’s publisher HarperCollins announced in February that a long-lost sequel to To Kill a Mockingbird had been discovered in August of last year and would be published this July, the literature community voiced concerns due to the timing of the announcement and what we know about Lee’s health (it’s poor). Many wondered if Lee’s lawyer Tonja Carter was taking advantage of the author, who may’ve been incapable of knowing what she was agreeing to.

The New York Times reported on Wednesday that investigators were “responding to at least one complaint of potential elder abuse related to the publication of ‘Watchman,'” after several locals filed their concerns.

Today, the Associated Press added that the investigation is now closed after the state visited Lee last month and found she “answered questions to an investigator’s satisfaction.”

Even if the investigation is definitive, concerns will undoubtedly linger. Yesterday’s report from The Times quoted a “historian and a friend of Ms. Lee” who agrees she’s “capable of assenting to the publication” of the book but describes a moment when the author was entirely unaware of Watchman:

But he also said she occasionally has problems with her short-term memory. When he asked her about her new novel, he said she seemed to be “in her own world” at first, and asked, “What novel?” Reminding her of “Watchman,” he told her, “You must be so proud,” and she responded with “I’m not so sure anymore,” Mr. Flynt recalled.

Go Set a Watchman jumped to the top of Amazon’s bestselling books list after the surprise announcement was made in early February. It will undoubtedly be a huge hit when it’s released on July 14, 2015.
