Come into the Alexandria Barnes and Noble for a chance to interact with 5 dynamic mystery writers. Bring your sleuth hats and your magnifying glasses as USA Today bestselling author Elle Cosimano hosts a panel with mystery authors Sherry Harris, Katharine Schellman, Sarah Glenn Marsh, and Olivia Blacke, and stay for the book signing!
- Elle Cosimano (she/her) is a USA Today bestselling author, an International Thriller Award winner, a Bram Stoker Award finalist, and an Edgar® Award nominee. Her debut novel for adults, Finlay Donovan Is Killing It, kicked off a witty, fast-paced contemporary mystery series, which was a PEOPLE Magazine Pick, was named one of New York Public Library’s Best Books of 2021, and has been optioned for screen by 20th Television Studios.
- Sherry Harris is the Agatha Award nominated author of the Sarah Winston Garage Sale mystery series (including Tagged for Death) and the Chloe Jackson Sea Glass Saloon mysteries (including From Beer to Eternity). Sherry is a past president of Sisters in Crime, and is a member of the Chesapeake Chapter of Sisters in Crime and Mystery Writers of America. Sherry loves books, beaches, bars, and bargain hunting — not necessarily in that order. She is also a patent holding inventor.
- Katharine Schellman (she/her) writes historical mysteries filled with intricate plots and smart, gutsy sleuths. Her newest series, set in Jazz Age NYC, launched this year with Last Call at the Nightingale, a gritty, glamorous mystery that was a New York Times editors’ pick for June and named one of the best mysteries of the summer by Publisher’s Weekly, Goodreads, Bustle, and more.
- Sarah Glenn Marsh is an author of several young adult novels including the Reign of the Fallen series (Reign of the Fallen), as well as picture books including the Junior Library Guild selection Dragon Bones: The Fantastic Fossil Discoveries of Mary Anning. She lives with her daughter and menagerie of pets in Richmond, Virginia.
- Olivia Blacke (she/her) is the author of Brooklyn Murder Mysteries Killer Content and No Memes Of Escape. Her upcoming cozy Record Shop Mystery Vinyl Resting Place (12/27/22) follows Juni Jessup and her sisters as they try to reopen the family record shop in their tiny Texas hometown where nothing bad ever happens – until a dead body falls out of the supply closet.
