A Deadly Dinner

An event for crime fiction fans 

Do you love to read whodunnits? Do you tense up as the villain gets closer and closer to the victim? Do you smile with satisfaction when the bad guys get their comeuppance?

Then you should sign up for A Deadly Dinner, to be held at the Harris Arts Center in Calhoun, Georgia, on October 23, 2010 from 6:00 PM until 9:30 PM.

This is Calhoun’s first event of this nature, a round-robin dinner with eight published crime fiction authors. Every author will spend time at each table during the evening, chatting with guests and talking about their books, writing, character development, and just getting to know one another.

Afterward, the authors’ books will be for sale, and the authors will be available to sign books as well as answer other questions that might have arisen.

Dinner will consist of:

✴      Appetizers

✴      A salad with the chef’s special dressing

✴      The main course, your choice of either–

  • Chicken with a light cream sauce*, or
  • Portobello mushroom with a light cream sauce*

✴      A “deadly” dessert and coffee

   

            * Both main courses served with homemade mashed potatoes and a steamed vegetable medley.  All meals served with ice water and your choice of sweet tea or wine
