 Attention: Graduates Bibliophiles

Meet the author and book signing of Gaviota by Santa Barbara resident Erik O’Dowd

Save the date:  Sunday, January 6th, 4:30-6:30

From the Santa Barbara News-Press:  “O’Dowd, a former class-action attorney, pens a first-class mystery sprawling across generations.  The intrigue begins in World War II at the nearby Gaviota coast and wends its way like a dynamite fuse through five decades until it touches a Supreme Court nominee blackmailed into silence and secrecy by a ruthless land-grabbing cabal.”

From the Santa Barbara Independent:  “A very cool idea anchors a contemporary political thriller-chiller in the very real shelling of Ellwood Beach by a Japanese submarine back in 1941.  The story revolves around political ambition, family secrets, and accusations of treason.”

Come meet Erik – a fascinating guy – at the home of Genie Gable and Jeff Moore.  There’s no cost other than the book, but reservations are limited to 12.  For reservations, email Polly Clement  starting Sunday, November 11, at noon.  Reservations accepted in the order received.

Gaviota can be purchased through Amazon.com and iUniverse.com and is also available locally at Chaucer’s Bookstore, Tecolote Book Shop and The Book Den on Anapamu across from the library.  Please read it in advance so you can contribute to the discussion.  The author will sign your copy.
