Part of the Chippewa Valley Book Festival, join us for a presentation from novelist Allen Eskens!
Allen will talk about how his penchant for daydreaming led him to write a collection of literary mysteries that are intertwined. Discover that genre books such as mysteries can also have heart; that a mystery novel is the perfect forum to explore family dynamics, character relationships, and deeper themes.
Allen Eskens is the USA Today best-selling author of eight novels: The Life We Bury, The Guise of Another, The Heavens May Fall, The Deep Dark Descending, The Shadows We Hide, Nothing More Dangerous, The Stolen Hours, and his most recent, Forsaken Country.
