“She’s on the Case”

Join us for an evening with Sulari Gentill, Hank Phillippi Ryan, and Eva Jurczyk

Free virtual event December 8th at 7 pm moderated by Rachel Raczka of the Boston Globe.

Registration is required for this Zoom event!

Everything was fine until it wasn’t—a scream in the library, books gone missing the first day on the job, a secret threatening to tear apart a perfect life. We’ll discuss intriguing mysteries with critically acclaimed authors Sulari Gentill, Hank Phillippi Ryan, and Eva Jurczyk.

"Investigations are launched, fingers are pointed, potentially dangerous liaisons unfold and I was turning those pages like there was cake at the finish line." —Moira Macdonald, Seattle Times

USA Today bestselling author Sulari Gentill has officially captivated readers and librarians with her “elegantly constructed, funny, and profound (PW starred)” mystery-within-a-mystery, THE WOMAN IN THE LIBRARY.

By setting a fun house mirror into the still quiet of the Boston Public Library, award winning author, Sulari Gentill takes us on “thrilling excursion into metafiction that wittily examines the writing process itself (PW, starred).”  But beware: once inside, a world of growing fixation, half-truths, shifting motivations, and a host of secrets buried within the pages engulfs as “one” author tries to write her own fate without losing control of the story.
