Long Island Noir - Author Talk & Book Signing

On Friday, September 14 at 7:00pm, Friday Night Dialogues at the Shelter Island Public Library will feature Kaylie Jones, editor of the very popular mystery book, Long Island Noir.   Kaylie will discuss her new book along with two of the contributing award winning authors, Reed Farrel Coleman and Mathew McGevna. 

 

Long Island Noir reveals stories of Long Island extremes from the comfortable rich to the horribly poor, and all the darkness in between….from Great Neck to Amagansett. In the book, Long Island emerges as a region far more complex and sinister than merely a playground for the rich and famous.
