Adults 18 & Up
Hear mystery and thriller authors talk about the howdunit in whodunits. Ask your burning questions about the life of a writer. And help out the library at the same time. With giveaways and a book signing afterwards.
Book sale proceeds will benefit the Friends of the Library. Books will be available for purchase in the library's foyer 30 minutes before and after the panel.
This program will meet in the Multipurpose Room.
Our authors will join us both in person and online. The event itself is in-person only. You won't want to miss it!
Check out our Crime Time author profiles:
Meet In Person
Sara Rosett: A mystery for every reader is the name of her game. Have a hankering for hometown amateur sleuths? International intrigue? Love Downton Abbey or Miss Fisher? Check, check, check.
L. A. Starks: Having worked for well-known companies in energy marketing, planning and engineering, Starks' thrillers explore the fictional underside of the oil industry. The Ewings have nothing on this.
Liese Sherwood-Fabre: Texas born and bred, but her heart belongs to Victorian England, recounting the case files of a young Sherlock Holmes.
Leanne Kale Sparks: After a short career in law, Sparks returned to her first love—writing about murder, mayhem, and crime. Her thrillers feature FBI Special Agent Kendall Beck tracking killers in the Colorado Rockies.
Rebecca Adler: This Florida gal traded one Gulf Coast state for another, settling right here in North Texas and dishing up culinary cozy mysteries with Tex-Mex flair.
Meet Virtually
Carolyn Haines: A Mississippi rancher with a big heart for animals and a bigger imagination for sassy Southern P.I. Sarah Booth Delaney's latest cases. Picture Stephanie Plum and friends with a drawl and her matchmaking mama as a ghost, tackling domestic murder mysteries in the Delta instead of The Burg.
Carmen Amato: A real CIA intelligence officer-turned author of Mexico-set police procedurals and Prohibition-era thrillers. Both series pull on her and her family's experience fighting crime.
We'll update the list as authors are announced.
