Join us on Wednesday, May 17 at 7:00 PM at Curry Public Library, Gold Beach for an author talk, Q&A, and book signing hosted by Curry Public Library in Gold Beach on behalf of Curry County libraries. The first 30 attendees will receive a free copy of Margolin’s latest thriller, Murder at Black Oaks. Additional copies will be available to purchase.

Lawyer turned novelist, Phillip Margolin worked for the Oregon Court of Appeals before eventually moving into private practice. In 1996, he began writing full time. His novels have won numerous awards and accolades, and several have been made into movies and miniseries. He has authored over 20 novels, all of which have been bestsellers. In his latest novel, Murder at Black Oaks, Attorney Robin Lockwood investigates a murder at an isolated resort in the Oregon mountains where she is tasked with finding a murderer among the odd group of guests. Murder at Black Oaks is a "skillfully written and well-polished new classic mystery" that is the "perfect winter read."
