Stealing from the Dead: Ideas and Where We Get Them

Saturday, October 5, 2019

Join us for a lively panel discussion by Sisters in Crime/New England authors Sharon Healy-Yang, Leslie Wheeler, and Lisa Lieberman. Did you ever wonder where mystery authors get their ideas? You don't need to be an international spy to write a page-turning thriller, or a law enforcement professional to write a police procedural. This discussion shows how authors put new twists on old plots, research facts and settings, and discover potential stories right in their own neighborhood. There will also be a presentation of the SinC "We Love Libraries" award to the Jones Library. Books will be available for purchase and signing.
