Book launch for latest offerings by Fradkin and Wiken
Barbara Fradkin, CCW author and two-time winner of the Arthur Ellis Award for Best Novel, is set to launch, Fire in the Stars, the first book in a new series. The book introduces Amanda Doucette, a former foreign aid worker who has returned to Canada to recover from a traumatic experience in Africa and finds herself searching for a fellow survivor gone missing in Newfoundland.
Although it’s a different setting and cast of characters, Fradkin hopes that readers who enjoy Inspector Green will find Amanda’s commitment, determination, and compassion equally engaging.
The launch also features Ladies’ Killing Circle compatriot Linda Wiken, who is also launching a new series.
Enjoy the refreshments while listening to these authors read excerpts from their newest work.
