(Manchester Center, VT) On Saturday, August 16 from 2:00-4:00 pm, five local authors will join us to autograph copies of their latest books. Please note that this will be a signing only – there will not be a seated author presentation.

MotherLove by Hope Andersen

For the past year, Rebecca Winslow’s life has been plagued by one disaster after another: the loss of her stillborn child, the disappearance of her younger sister, and the hopelessness of her toxic marriage to a narcissist who doesn’t understand her grief. By chance, Rebecca stumbles on a clue in the search for her sister, which leads her to St. Croix. Despite her fears, she boards a plane for the island.

The Arsonist by Ken Coulson

When Cal Minor strikes bottom – losing his home, career, wonderful wife, and children – redemption appears at the elite Atlas Corp led by the corporate bull, Hank Henleman, who is hell-bent on monetizing the looming global climate catastrophe. Riding the razor’s edge, The Arsonist brings readers to the brink of calamity in an intriguing, contemporary, and revelatory debut corporate thriller.

A Flight to Rome by Tom Garry

It’s September 1939, and as World War II erupts, a career-imperiled U.S. Army officer and extraordinary Polish nun leave Warsaw for the Vatican with orders to put a macabre pair of relics beyond the reach of the occult-obsessed Nazis. 

Color in Seven Chapters: Color in Interiors by Josephine L. McKee

Written from the author’s experience as an interiors colorist and extensively researched, Color in Seven Chapters is an exploration of color that is organized with seven individual considerations to convey a deeper understanding of its complex subject.

Journey Beyond Despair by Julie Parker

A true story of two lovers pitted against a deadly enemy, Journey Beyond Despair introduces Julie, the quixotic author, whose conflict between airy ideals and earthly reality results in mental illness. Readers meet the fated couple in 1960 as Peter delivers his terrified wife to a Chicago psychiatric hospital, then returns home to pick up the pieces with three tiny daughters.
