I’m looking forward to hosting the panel “Twisted Tales” this Saturday afternoon at the Fall for the Book Festival in Fairfax, VA. The session features Alisa Alering, author of Smothermoss, and Keith Donohue, author of The Girl in the Bog, and it takes place Saturday, October 12, at 2 p.m. at Old Town Hall, 3999 University Drive, Fairfax, VA.
Below is the write-up from the festival website—and the full day’s schedule can be found here.
Alisa Alering and Keith Donohue astound readers with mysteries, thrills, and otherworldly secrets. Alering’s Smothermoss tells the story of two troubled sisters pulled into a hunt for a killer. Barnes & Noble says, “For those obsessed with Appalachian lore comes a hauntingly atmospheric tale toeing the line of a twisted fairy tale.” In Donohue’s The Girl in the Bog, a farmer digs up a two thousand year old body of a young woman, which has been preserved in a bog in Ireland. When the woman awakens in modern times, she must go on the run from the natural and supernatural forces that are out to get her.
