A ll tickets are non-refundable. \nStreet parking available. Wheelchair accessible entrance also available through the rear parking lot. \n****** \nAbout the Books: \nOne of Us Knows by Alyssa Cole \nYears after a breakdown and a diagnosis of dissociative identity disorder derailed her historical preservationist career\, Kenetria Nash and her alters have been given a second chance they can’t refuse: a position as resident caretaker of a historic home. Having been dormant for years\, Ken has no idea what led them to this isolated Hudson River island\, but she’s determined not to ruin their opportunity. \nThen a surprise visit from the home’s conservation trust just as a Nor’easter bears down on the island disrupts her newfound life\, leaving Ken trapped with a group of possibly dangerous strangers—including the man who brought her life tumbling down years earlier. When he turns up dead\, Ken is the prime suspect. \nCaught in a web of secrets and in a race against time\, Ken and her alters must band together to prove their innocence and discover the truth of Kavanaugh Island—and their own past—or they risk losing not only their future\, but their life. \n \nMissing White Woman by Kellye Garrett \nThe truth is never skin deep. \nIt was supposed to be a romantic getaway weekend in New York City. Breanna’s new boyfriend\, Ty\, took care of everything—the train tickets\, the dinner reservations\, the rented four-story luxury rowhouse in Jersey City with a beautiful view of the Manhattan skyline. But when Bree comes downstairs their final morning\, she’s shocked. There’s a stranger laying dead in the foyer\, and Ty is nowhere to be found. \nA Black woman alone in a new city\, Bree is stranded and out of her depth—especially when it becomes clear the dead woman is none other than Janelle Beckett\, the missing woman the entire Internet has become obsessed with. There’s only one person Bree can turn to: her ex-best friend\, a lawyer with whom she shares a very complicated past. As the police and a social media mob close in\, all looking for #JusticeForJanelle\, Bree realizes that the only way she can help Ty—or herself—is to figure out what really happened that last night. \nBut when people only see what they want to see\, can she uncover the truth hiding in plain sight? \n \nAbout the Authors: \nAlyssa Cole is an award-winning\, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of thrillers and romance (historical\, contemporary\, and sci-fi). Her books have received critical acclaim from Library Journal\, BuzzFeed\, Kirkus\, Booklist\, Jezebel\, Vulture\, Book Riot\, Entertainment Weekly\, and various other outlets. When she’s not working\, she can usually be found watching anime or wrangling her many pets. \nKellye Garrett is the author of Like a Sister—an Edgar nominee for Best Novel\, Anthony Award winner for Best Hardcover Mystery\, and Lefty Award winner for Best Mystery—as well as Hollywood Homicide\, which won Agatha\, Anthony\, Lefty\, and Independent Publisher “IPPY” awards for Best First Novel and was named one of Time’s 100 Best Mystery and Thriller Books of All Time and BookBub’s Top 100 Crime Novels of All Time\, and Hollywood Ending\, which was nominated for both Anthony and Lefty awards. Prior to writing novels\, Garrett spent eight years working in Hollywood\, including a stint writing for Cold Case. She is a New Jersey native\, a cofounder of Crime Writers of Color\, and a former board member of Sisters in Crime.
