Join me online on August 25, 2021, at 5:00 p.m. for a FREE author meet-and-greet sponsored by Browesabout Books and the Lewes Public Library. Both organizations have tapped me to host a discussion on crime fiction with fellow Polis Books mystery writers Johnny Shaw (author of The Southland) and Zhanna Slor (author of At the End of the World, Turn Left).
Johnny Shaw has been nominated for the Anthony Award three times, winning for Best Paperback Original in 2013 for the comedic adventure novel Big Maria. He has also won the Spotted Owl Award twice for his Jimmy Veeder Fiasco border novels, which include Dove Season, Plaster City, and Imperial Valley. His most recent release is The Southland, an American crime story about the dangers that migrants face when being forced to live in the shadows.
At the End of the World, Turn Left, is Zhanna Slor’s debut novel about identity and how one defines “home.” Upon its release in April of this year, the novel was heralded as a must-read by CrimeReads and named by Booklist as one of the “Top Ten Crime Debuts of 2021.” Her work is a literary mystery set in Milwaukee’s eclectic Riverwest neighborhood during the 2008 recession and weaves together the tale of two immigrant sisters with vastly different definitions of home. Zhanna has also been published in several literary magazines, including Ninth Letter, Another Chicago Magazine, and Michigan Quarterly Review, and she is a frequent contributor to The Forward.

See you there!
