I may be best known for my cozies, but as those who came to know me through World Enough* know, I also write dark. Thanks, perhaps, in part to being named one of the writers “taking the Boston crime novel in new directions,” in the footsteps of George V. Higgins, I’ve been asked to be part of a Noir at the Bar event tomorrow (Thursday) at the Trident Booksellers Cafe on Newbury Street in Boston. Along with Ed Kurtz, doungjai gam, Rick Ollerman, E.F. Sweetman, and JM Taylor, I’ll be reading some of my darker stuff – maybe from my new WIP (think rock and roll, think “Behind the Music,” think #MeToo). The event is free and starts at 7 p.m. (not a.m., as the website says – noir is not an early morning genre). Hope to see you there!
*Named as one of “Five Reinventions of the Boston Crime Novel” by Strand Magazine.
