Join Anderson’s Bookshop for an author event with Shane Gericke, to celebrate the release of Ocean of Bones, on Friday, September 5th at 7:00 pm in our Naperville store.
Event Format
We will begin checking you in approximately 30 minutes before the start time. After a presentation and Q&A with the author, the line will form in numbered order with the following guidelines:
Posed photo with your camera taken by our staff
There is a limit of 2 books from home to be signed (unless otherwise stated)
There is a limit of 1 personalization of the new book only (unless otherwise stated)
All events have open seating. The “Order Line Number” on your pdf ticket is your reserved place in the signing line. You will line up to meet the author based on that number.
If you cannot attend, you must pick up your book (if included with ticket) at the hosting store within 30 days of the event. We can ship that book to you for an additional charge of $9.99; please call the store to arrange that.
Pre-registration is required for this event because space is limited.
More about Ocean of Bones:
The oil rig spasmed like heroin withdrawal. Broussard staggered for the rails as riggers and engineers crashed onto the splintering deck. Sheet metal howled like a chorus of the dead as the
highly flammable oil and gas spewing from the drill tower looked for just one spark . . .
An oil rig disaster sends Remy "Knockout" Broussard to the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico. Normally he'd rest there for eternity, but the oil gods watched the rough-and-tough roustabout sacrifice his life to save his fellow workers. They decide to reunite Knockout with his grieving family and choose two wisecracking treasure hunters for the job. At turns hilarious and heartrending, it's Shane Gericke at his very best.
About the Author:
Shane Gericke is the bestselling author of Ocean of Bones, Blown Away, and other novels, as well as an internationally awarded landscape photographer. He spent 25 years as a newspaper editor and reporter, most notably at the Chicago Sun-Times, before turning to fiction. The longtime resident of Naperville now lives in Arizona, where he says with a straight face about 115-degree summers, “it’s not the heat, it’s the humidity.”
