Reading about crime

The Thompson Nicola Regional District Library System is hosting readings with crime writer Peter Kirby

The Thompson Nicola Regional District Library System is hosting readings with crime writer Peter Kirby.

Kirby will be reading at the Chase Library on Thursday, March 10 at 5 p.m. Open Season is Kirby’s most recent novel and it features a Guatemalan journalist who is kidnapped, and the only message from her kidnappers is the murder of her lawyer.

In a race against time, Detective Inspector Luc Vanier sets about reconstructing her life through the sordid world of human trafficking, the underbelly of a multinational mining corporation, and the hiding places of desperate refugees.

The event is free, but contact the branch to pre-register.
