Book talk with Portland author Linda Lee Peterson
Griffin Bay Bookstore
Saturday Evening, November 16, 7:00 Pm
Griffin Bay Bookstore & the San Juan Island Library are pleased to announce an evening book talk with Linda Lee Peterson, presenting her second mystery with journalist-sleuth Maggi Fiori, The Devil’s Interval. Mystery lovers: this is your chance to be meet up with a new wisecracking crime solver and hear about her latest forays in San Francisco.
A glamorous socialite murdered in the backseat of a limo. A convicted killer on Death Row, watching the appeals clock tick away. A mother, the doyenne of the San Francisco jazz scene, desperate for help in proving her son’s innocence. Enter Maggie Fiori, still too smart for her own good and foolishly open to another adventure. With a marriage in disrepair from her last sleuthing (and adulterous) adventure, two boys to raise, and a magazine to run, you’d think she’d walk away. But Maggie can’t say no when the plea is made mother-to-mother. There’s sass and mystery and danger and plenty of insider looks at San Francisco society, high and low. The music isn’t sweet in The Devil’s Interval, but it’s unforgettable.
“The Devil’s Interval is a roller-coaster ride through the streets and alleys of San Francisco that will evoke Robert Parker’s Spenser novels with a dash of Janet Evanovich. Get out the flashlight. You’ll be up late.”
— Robert Dugoni, New York Times bestselling author of The Conviction
