About the event
Join avid Pt. Townsend, WA readers and award-winning author, Kay Smith-Blum at the public library in the heart of town at 3 p.m. on Thursday, September 25th. KSB will discuss the extensive research and the literary craft behind her genre-defying novel, TANGLES. A Cold War love story wrapped inside a thriller that Net Galley readers agree is "a page-turning must read." If you have only a passing knowledge of our nuclear legacy and Washington State's role in the Manhattan Project, or, are interested in the state of the environmental cleanup at Hanford, this is a talk you won't want to miss! A robust Q & A will follow the talk and personalized copies of TANGLES will be available for purchase.
