Tomorrow, Wednesday, March 11, Rosemary Harris visits to talk about and sign copies of her books Pushing Up Daisies (St. Martin's, $23.95 in hardcover; $6.99 in paperback) and The Big Dirt Nap (Minotaur, $24.95), the first two books in her engaging and delightful gardening mystery series. Daisies is an Agatha Award nominee for Best First Novel of 2008.

Rosemary will also talk about how she and her husband built a library in Tanzania; visit Rosemary's website at http://www.rosemaryharris.com/chalula.htm to learn more about this exciting and inspiring project. We will donate a portion of sales of Rosemary's hardcovers (now through March 15) to the Chalula Library.

  • I'll be interviewing Laura Lippman at the Carmel Clay Public Library on Thursday, March 19 at 7 pm. We'll also be on hand to sell copies of Laura's latest novel, Life Sentences, which goes on sale today.  A portion of the proceeds on the sale of this title will go to the library foundation. You don't need to wait for the event to read this fascinating and subversive new novel; we'll include in-store sales in figuring the contribution to the library. For more information about the event, visit the foundation website.  For more on Laura, visit lauralippman.com. The event is free and open to all.
  • Our next in-store event will be with Barry Eisler on Sunday, March 22, at 2 pm. Barry's new novel is Fault Line, his first standalone after six novels featuring assassin John Rain. This book is also on-sale today. For more information, visit barryeisler.com.
Yours in Mystery,
