Location: McCord Auditorium, Dallas Hall at Southern Methodist University
Join Arts & Letters Live and the Dallas Literary Festival for a free event featuring a panel discussion and book signing with authors Deborah Crombie, Brendan Slocumb, and Rosalyn Story.
New York Times bestseller Deborah Crombie returns with a new novel, A Killing of Innocents, featuring Scotland Yard detectives Duncan Kincaid and Gemma James as they race to solve the shocking murder of a young woman before panic spreads across London.
Brendan Slocumb’s novel The Violin Conspiracy, a Good Morning America GMA Book Club Pick, tells the story of Ray McMillian, a Black classical musician on the rise—and undeterred by the pressure and prejudice of the classical music world—when a shocking theft sends him on a desperate quest to recover his great-great-grandfather’s heirloom violin on the eve of the most prestigious musical competition in the world.
Sing Her Name follows two musically gifted women whose lives overlap across the boundaries of time. This third novel by Rosalyn Story, whose critically acclaimed books address the central role of Black people in American music, is her best and most rewarding yet.
FREE EVENT: advance registration is strongly encouraged.
