Book Talk: Kate Brandes “Stone Creek”
Saturday, August 17th at 1 pm
Riegelsville Public Library
Join us for a lively discussion by local author Kate Brandes on her newest novel “Stone Creek”, publishing on August 6th.
Geology professor Kate Brandes’ story of a woman abandoned by her father, an anarchist who blows up dams, presents complex environmental issues further complicated by thorny family dynamics. Seventeen years ago, Tilly (age 13) is left to fend for herself in rural Pennsylvania when her infamous eco-terrorist father disappears under mysterious circumstances. Ever since she’s tried to forget the dams they blew up together and forge a new life until her father’s return threatens to upend her small-town world and her friendship with the dogged FBI agent still pursuing him. Ultimately, as the past and present fuse and blow up with more than one kind of casualty, Tilly must choose between the father she loves and her home.
