July 23, 2020: "Fair Warning," with author Michael Connelly
Looking for a great read? Pick up Michael Connelly’s latest bestseller, “Fair Warning.” He'll join the Sacramento Press Club for a Facebook live event at 4 p.m. on Thursday, July 23, to discuss his new book.
Joining Michael will be Myron Levin, founder and editor of the investigative news site FairWarning.org.
Michael and Myron are friends from their days as reporters at the Los Angeles Times. Michael captures Myron’s unique personality in “Fair Warning,” as the protagonist, investigative reporter Jack McEvoy, tracks down a serial killer.
Connelly told critic Paula L. Woods in the Los Angeles Times: “I wanted to write about a reporter who’s undaunted and fierce in trying to find the hidden truth.”
The New York Times says of "Fair Warning": “Connelly is in terrific form here, applying genre conventions to the real-life dangers inherent in the commercial marketing of genetics research.”
Avid Reader on Broadway, an independent bookstore in Sacramento, will provide a 20% discount on the purchase price for Sacramento Press Club members.
