Program Description

Event Details

In partnership with the Library Speakers Consortium, we're streaming A Murder Mystery, Family Story, & Love Letter to Strong Women Everywhere: A Virtual Author Talk with Nina Simon. This is a live author event with an interactive Q&A session!

Nina Simon writes crime fiction about strong women. She is the New York Times-bestselling author of Mother-Daughter Murder Night, which was a Reese's Book Club pick and a "best of 2023" selection for Amazon, Barnes & Noble, CrimeReads, and LibraryJournal. Before turning to fiction, Simon worked as NASA engineer, slam poet, game designer, museum director, and nonprofit CEO. Mother-Daughter Murder Night is her first novel. Born and raised in Los Angeles, Simon now lives off-the-grid in the Santa Cruz Mountains with her family.

Join Nina Simon online as she chats about her lighthearted whodunnit about a grandmother-mother-daughter trio of amateur sleuths, Mother-Daughter Murder Night. In Mother-Daughter Murder Night, high-powered business woman Lana Rubicon is convalescing in a sleepy coastal town with her adult daughter Beth and teenage granddaughter Jack. After Jack finds a dead body, she becomes a suspect in the homicide investigation, and the Rubicon women are thrown into chaos. With Jack and Beth’s help, Lana uncovers a web of lies, family vendettas and land disputes lurking beneath the surface of a community populated by folksy conservationists and wealthy ranchers. But as their amateur snooping advances into ever-more dangerous territory, the headstrong Rubicon women must learn to do the one thing they’ve always resisted: depend on each other.
