About this Event

Kate Weston, Dhonielle Clayton, Caitlin Breeze, and Tesia Tsai will have a lively conversation about their newest novels: Coterie of Liars, Breakout, The Fox Hunt, and Deathly Fates.

From the eerie rituals of Chinese necromancy to secret elite societies, a spring-break thriller, and a killer party, these writers will dig into the ideas, honing their craft, and the inspiration behind their stories.
