Susanne Alleyn will read from her new book The Cavalier of the Apocalypse at the New Lebanon Library on Thursday, November 12, at 7 pm. The reading will be followed by a Q&A and book signing. Light refreshments will be served. All are welcome and the event is free.
The book is a prequel to two mysteries that were set in the aftermath of the French Revolution. It recounts how the series protagonist, Aristide Ravel, became a detective. The Freemasons, a scandal involving the disappearance of the queen’s necklace and detailed descriptions of daily, pre-revolution life punctuate the novel. Alleyn, who lives in Albany, has been researching and writing about the French Revolution since her teens and is currently working on the fourth Aristide Ravel historical mystery.
For further information on this event, please call the New Lebanon Library at 518-794-8844. The library is located at 550 State Route 20, 1/4 mile north of the yellow blinking light at the intersection of Routes 20/22.
