Blue Bicycle Books Charleston Author Series Luncheon with Karen White, NY Times Best Selling Author
Join us January 14, 2017 at noon for Blue Bicycle Books Charleston Author Series luncheon at High Cotton, with Best Selling Author Karen White on the launch day of her newest Tradd Street Mystery, "The Guests on South Battery."
New York Times bestselling author Karen White invites you to explore the brick-walked streets of Charleston, where historic mansions house the memories of years gone by, and restless spirits refuse to fade away...
Tickets for this fun event to meet and listen to Karen White discuss her latest mystery novel are $57 for the luncheon and a signed, hardcover copy of Karen's newest book, "The Guests on South Battery."
ABOUT THE BOOK: With her extended maternity leave at its end, Melanie Trenholm is less than thrilled to leave her new husband and beautiful twins to return to work, especially when she's awoken by a phone call with no voice on the other end and the uneasy feeling that the ghostly apparitions that have stayed silent for more than a year are about to invade her life once more. But her return to the realty office goes better than she could have hoped, with a new client eager to sell the home she recently inherited on South Battery. Most would treasure living in one of the grandest old homes in the famous historic district of Charleston, but Jayne Smith would rather sell hers as soon as possible, guaranteeing Melanie a quick commission. Despite her stroke of luck, Melanie cant deny that spirits both malevolent and benign have started to show themselves to her again. One is shrouded from sight, but appears whenever Jayne is near. Another arrives when an old cistern is discovered in Melanie's backyard on Tradd Street. Melanie knows nothing good can come from unearthing the past. But some secrets refuse to stay buried.
