Resort to Murder Readings and Signings--December
Resort to Murder makes a great gift! Come meet the authors and get your own signed copy! We'll read excerpts from stories, take questions, and sign books at the following locations (please check with host location close to date in case of changes)
The December reading will be the last of the group readings, so it will be your last chance to get multiple authors to sign.
Resort to Murder editors Ellen Hart, Carl Brookins, and William Kent Krueger (collectively known as Minnesota Crime Wave) will carry on with readings and signings of Resort to Murder as well as their own numerous books. For the latest on their touring schedule, visit their website.
Don't forget! You can purchase Resort to Murder at many fine bookstores throughout the Midwest and beyond.
