Meet the Author - Veronica Roth

Join us as #1 New York Times bestselling author Veronica Roth launches her newest book, To Clutch a Razor.   This new work pulls from Slavic folklore to explore family, duty, and what it means to be a monster in this sequel to the USA Today bestselling novella When Among Crows.

This is a very special ticketed event.  Each ticket is $26 and includes a signed copy of To Clutch a Razor.  Veronica will take photos with fans and is willing to personalize up to four books.  Doors will open at 5:30 pm and seating is first-come, first-served.  

A funeral. A heist. A mission born of desperation.

When someone in Dymitr’s family dies, he’s called back home for the Empty Night, a funeral rite intended to keep evil at bay.

The secret Dymitr is keeping from them makes returning home downright dangerous, but if he wants to get his hands on a book of curses that might appease Baba Jaga’s blood lust, he has no choice. And when that same funeral brings ferocious creature-of-legend Niko to town for his own bloody purposes, Dymitr’s charade becomes impossible to maintain.

Family gatherings can be brutal. Dymitr’s might just be fatal. 

Don't miss this chance to be among the first to read Vernonica Roth's new book.  Each $26 ticket admits one person and includes a signed copy of the book.  Veronica will also be available for photos after her presentation.
