GIVEAWAY AND TALK with SUSAN SWAN ON MAY 10 – Ridgeway Reads Spring Author Series
Canadian author Susan Swan will be talking about her new novel, The Western Light, Friday, May 10 at Ridgeway Crystal Beach High School Auditorium. Doors open 6 pm, reading, at 7.
Swan’s new book is set in Petrolia, Ontario and on the Georgian Bay. It tells the unforgettable story of Mary “Mouse” Bradford–protagonist of Swan’s bestselling The Wives of Bath—who is torn between her distant father and the charismatic Gentleman John Pilkie, an ex-NHL hockey player sent to the psychiatric hospital in Mouse’s hometown for murdering his wife and child.
Pilkie suffered a concussion playing hockey and it’s not clear until the end of the novel whether he is a real killer or not.
For every purchase of The Western Light, Swan is giving away a free copy of her earlier novel, What Casanova Told Me.
