Here’s your
chance to meet #1 New York Times bestselling author Paula Hawkins, author of Girl on the Train, which sold more than
23 million copies worldwide and was made into a major motion picture,
starring Emily Blunt.
Hawkins will
take the City Opera House stage to talk with #1 bestselling author and NWS
co-founder Doug Stanton about her propulsive and powerful new novel, The Blue Hour, praised by Lee Child as “The best Paula Hawkins yet—by a tense and haunting mile.”
The tale is set
on Eris Island unreachable from the Scottish mainland for twelve hours each day
where only one inhabitant lives on the island’s sole house. It was once home to
Vanessa, a famous artist and sculptor, who lost her fight to cancer, leaving behind
the unsolved disappearance of her notoriously unfaithful husband twenty years
ago. Now the island is home to her confidante, Grace, a solitary creature of
the tides, content in her own isolation. But when a shocking discovery is made
in an art gallery–human bones found in one of Vanessa’s art pieces– a visitor
comes calling. And the secrets of Eris threaten to unravel.
The event begins at 7 p.m.
and includes a Q and A and author signing. Each ticket comes with a signed
HARDCOVER copy of The Blue Hour,
available for pick-up at Horizon Books on October 10 or at the event.
