Join us on Saturday, October 5th in the Hermann meeting room for an author talk and book signing with Maddie Day - Edith Maxwell - as she discusses her latest books A Case for the Ladies (A Dot and Amelia Mystery) and Murder at the Rusty Anchor (A Cozy Capers Book Group Mystery).

A Case for the Ladies:
"This novel brings a pre-fame Amelia Earhart to life in 1926, when she lived in a Boston suburb and worked as a teacher and social worker at a settlement house founded to help immigrant women. After Amelia meets fictional lady PI Dot Henderson, and more than one young immigrant woman is found murdered, the two put their heads together to seek justice for the less powerful."

Murder at the Rusty Anchor:
"A rainy July weekend in Westham means the beaches are empty and business is dead at Mac's Bikes but couldn't be livelier inside the Rusty Anchor Pub. But come Monday morning one patron is not so lively when the chef opens up and finds a body behind the bar. It's last call for Bruce Byrne, an elderly high school teacher who's been around so long it seems like he taught everybody."
