Events

We’re hoping for a big turnout for Thursday’s event with Castle Freeman, Jr., author of Go With Me.

Once more, the details:

WHO: You! All are invited, whether or not you read the book, and whether or not you liked the book. Bring a friend!

WHERE: Lutheran Church of the Nativity, on the corner of Main Street (route 16) and Grove Street in North Conway Village

WHEN: 7 pm on Thursday, November 4

WHAT: To start, the Mountain Storytellers Guild will present a staged reading of a chapter of the book. Then, author Castle Freeman, Jr. will speak about the book, what inspired him to write it, his work as a writer, and answer your questions.

WHAT ELSE? White Birch Books will have copies of Go With Me for sale and signing as well as Freeman’s newer novel, All That I Have. Cookies and cider refreshments will be available, any donations for refreshments will benefit Starting Point.

Author Castle Freeman, Jr. describes a disturbing crime in “Go With Me,” one of intimidation and unmitigated meanness. The response of law enforcement officials to the reported crime drives the subsequent action in the book. To give perspective on how real-life criminal investigations compare to fictional ones, NH State Police Detective Justin Rowe will make a presentation at the Madison Library on Thursday, October 28 at 7 pm.

At this presentation, Det. Rowe will speak about criminal investigations in New Hampshire, focusing on how they are handled in rural areas, and then answer questions, including ones related to the types of crimes and investigations described in the book “Go With Me.”
