SUMMARY:Ink & intrigue: "Hooked" with Caitlin Rother
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening with Caitlin Rother\, bestselling author and investigative journalist\, as she explores the twists and turns of her latest thriller\, Hooked\, set right here in San Diego. Drawing on her background in true-crime reporting — including her acclaimed Death on Ocean Boulevard\, set in Coronado — Rother brings real-world tension and insight to her fiction. Hear how investigative journalism fuels her suspenseful storytelling and what it takes to keep readers guessing until the final page. \nBooks will be available for sale at the event and a book signing will follow the talk. \n\nABOUT THE BOOK \n\nInvestigative reporter Katrina Chopin is back home in San Diego on a mission (or two). The first is personal: reheating the cold case of her parents’ murder and investigating her brother’s reported suicide. The second involves a new spate of deaths with alleged causes that just don’t smell right. She and Detective Ken Goode need each other’s help for both. But she has to keep the sexy surfer at arm’s length\, because dating him is off limits. For now. \nTeaming up\, they make coordinated progress down each path. Digging deeper into La Jolla’s corrupt network of elites\, they uncover a pattern of lies\, depravity\, and greed. And with every new discovery\, Katrina is pulled closer to danger…and to Goode. \nSharing sexy phone calls and sunset drinks isn’t exactly following the rules\, but fully crossing that line could jeopardize the case. As they start to connect the dots\, they realize they must risk everything to bring down the shadowy cabal that kills to keep its secrets. \n\n\n\n\nABOUT THE AUTHOR \nCaitlin Rother has written or co-authored 16 books\, ranging from true crime to thrillers and memoir. A New York Times bestselling author and investigative journalist\, Rother worked nearly 20 years for daily newspapers. Writing books full-time since 2006\, she draws from decades of watchdog reporting on topics from addiction to suicide\, mental illness\, murder\, government\, political corruption and the criminal justice system. A popular speaker\, she has appeared more than 250 times on TV\, radio\, and podcasts as a crime expert. A former writing instructor of 10 years\, she coaches a limited number of aspiring author clients.

SUMMARY:An evening with New York Times bestselling author Paula McClain
DESCRIPTION:The Coronado Public Library\, in partnership with Warwicks Bookstore presents Paula McLain\, New York Times bestselling author of The Paris Wife\, Circling the Sun\, and Love and Ruin. McLain will discuss and sign her new novel\, Skylark. A mesmerizing tale of Paris above and below\, where a woman’s pursuit of artistic freedom in 1664 intertwines with a doctor’s dangerous mission during the German occupation of the 1940s\, it’s a story of courage and resistance that transcends time. \nA book-signing will follow. This event is free and open to the public. Seating is first-come\, first-served\, subject to availability. Limited preferred seating is available with purchase of Skylark through Warwick’s bookstore. Please visit www.warwicks.com/mclain-2026-reserved-seat or call the store at 858-454-0347 for more information. \n\nAbout the Author\nPaula McLain is the author of the New York Times bestselling novels\, The Paris Wife\, Circling the Sun\, and Love and Ruin. Her latest instant bestseller is When the Stars Go Dark. \nPaula McLain was born in Fresno\, California in 1965. After being abandoned by both parents\, she and her two sisters became wards of the California Court System\, moving in and out of various foster homes for the next fourteen years. When she aged out of the system\, she supported herself by working as a nurse’s aide in a convalescent hospital\, a pizza delivery girl\, an auto-plant worker\, a cocktail waitress — before discovering she could (and very much wanted to) write. She received her MFA in poetry from the University of Michigan in 1996. \nMcLain’s essays have appeared in Town & Country\, Good Housekeeping\, Real Simple\, O the Oprah Magazine\, Huffington Post\, The Guardian\, The New York Times and elsewhere. She is also the author of the memoir\, Like Family: Growing up in Other People’s Houses\, two collections of poetry\, and the debut novel\, A Ticket to Ride. She lives with her family in Cleveland. \n\nAbout Skylark\n1664: Alouette Voland is the daughter of a master dyer at the famed Gobelin Tapestry Works\, who secretly dreams of escaping her circumstances and creating her own masterpiece. When her father is unjustly imprisoned\, Alouette’s efforts to save him lead to her own confinement in the notorious Salpêtrière asylum\, where thousands of women are held captive and cruelly treated. But within its grim walls\, she discovers a small group of brave allies\, and the possibility of a life bigger than she ever imagined. \n1939: Kristof Larson is a medical student beginning his psychiatric residency in Paris\, whose neighbors on the Rue de Gobelins are a Jewish family who have fled Poland. When Nazi forces descend on the city\, Kristof becomes their only hope for survival\, even as his work as a doctor is jeopardized. \nA spellbinding and transportive look at a side of Paris known to very few — the underground city that is a mirror reflection of the glories above — Paula McLain’s unforgettable new novel chronicles two parallel journeys of defiance and rescue that connect in ways both surprising and deeply moving.
