About this Event
Part of Litquake’s Words Around the World
Sponsored by NORLA, Norway House, and Center for the Art of Translation/Two Lines Press
Co-presented with Mystery Writers of America-NorCal
Clever crimes and tight plotting can only get you so far—when it comes to a mystery novel or series’s staying power, it’s the detective who counts. Four masterful suspense novelists introduce their unforgettable protagonists—from a supernaturally talented forensic photographer to the granddaughter of a serial killer. Nordic Noir master Thomas Enger (Stigma) and National Book Award nominee Ramona Emerson (Exposure) are joined by Michelle Chouinard (The Serial Killer Guide to San Francisco) and Nina Simon (Mother-Daughter M**der Night), whose Bay Area–set mysteries feature home-grown amateur sleuths. Vera Chan moderates this talented lineup, who will also give aspiring writers a few clues about how to create super sleuths of their own. Doors at 6:30PM. $18 / $15 early bird through 10/13
