True crime fans will want to mark their calendar for this program with guest speaker Ken Lang. Former Maryland homicide detective, forensic artist, and award-winning author, Lang will be sharing his knowledge and experiences as a craniofacial forensic artist. He will be exploring composite sketches and skull reconstruction methods he uses for identifying victims and suspects. In 2011, Lang's first book, Walking Among the Dead, hit the bookshelves. Lang has since completed two sequel books: Standing In Death's Shadow and Death Comes Uninvited. Lang will be available for book sales and autographs at the end of the program.
