Author Stuart Turton in Conversation with Eric Rickstad

May 29 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm

$41.84

Stuart Turton, the bestselling author of The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle and The Devil and the Dark Water will discuss his inventive, high-concept new murder mystery with fellow bestselling mystery author Eric Rickstad, the author of Lilith.

Solve the murder to save what’s left of the world.

Outside the island there is nothing: the world was destroyed by a fog that swept the planet, killing anyone it touched.

On the island: it is idyllic. One hundred and twenty-two villagers and three scientists, living in peaceful harmony. The villagers are content to fish, farm and feast, to obey their nightly curfew, to do what they’re told by the scientists.

Until, to the horror of the islanders, one of their beloved scientists is found brutally stabbed to death. And then they learn that the murder has triggered a lowering of the security system around the island, the only thing that was keeping the fog at bay. If the murder isn’t solved within 107 hours, the fog will smother the island—and everyone on it.

But the security system has also wiped everyone’s memories of exactly what happened the night before, which means that someone on the island is a murderer—and they don’t even know it.

And the clock is ticking.

Stuart Turton is a freelance journalist who lives in West London with his wife. Stuart is not to be trusted—in the nicest possible way. He is the author of the previous books The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle and The Devil and the Dark Water.

Eric Rickstad is the author of bestselling mysteries and thrillers including I Am Not Who You Think I Am, which the New York Times listed as a “best thriller,” and most recently, Lilith.

Tickets for this event include hardcover copy of The Last Murder at the End of the World. You will receive your book when you arrive at the event on May 29. If you cannot attend the event, you can pick up your book in Northshire Bookstore’s Saratoga Springs location between May 30 and June 30.
