Author Julie Castillo will join us to present and sign her novel for adults, The Long Man’s Pillow.
As a catastrophic drought plagues the United States, Vicki Truax, a lonely Baltimorean, inherits land outside a remote Appalachian town. Among the quirky townsfolk, she finds herself at home for the first time in her life. But danger lurks: a merciless businessman with a lucrative well attempts to seize her land, and water thieves roam her land at night, attempting to tap an aquifer. When Vicki discovers a small spring on her land, fears of a water war force her to keep the knowledge to herself. But when other sources fail, Vicki’ s land is the only source of water, and she’ s left to decide who gets water and who dies.
We will have copies of The Long Man’s Pillow available to purchase at the event.
