Set against the lovely waterfront of Beaufort NC amid legendary summer suppers and historic house tours, A Happier Life cements Kristy's claims to a chaise in the Beach Read Queens cabana. A Southern hostess with the mostest, Beck Saint James will never know her granddaughter, Keaton, or that she will be the one to unravel the mystery surrounding her disappearance, along with her husband Townsend, forty years ago. As Keaton peels back the layers of their life, along with hers, she discovers a family (and town) saga in which the past has remained frozen in time- along with the Saint James home- yet continues to affect the present and future of everyone who sat at Beck's Last Supper. A Happier Life asks the unanswerable question- how would you end a beautiful life if you knew that life was coming to an end? With a mix of romance and mystery, Harvey's unforgettable novel proposes that maybe, just maybe, there is an answer and maybe it is the perfect ending. To celebrate the publication of A Happier Life and Kristy's book tour stop in Manteo, we are throwing a garden party worthy of Becks Saint James. Tickets include a special afternoon in the garden of Roanoke Island Inn with author Kristy Woodson Harvey, a signed copy of A Happier Life, $5 donation to the Downtown Books BAND* fund, and light refreshments. Kick off First Friday early- bring your whole book club to celebrate this wonderful eastern North Carolina author and to toast her best novel yet- A Happier Life!
*Bringing Authors INto Dare Schools- our new endeavor to raise funds to bring more authors into our schools giving Dare County students the opportunity to meet and interact with them.
