I will be reading from Garvey's Ghost at these two events during the Miami Book Fair International:


Follow the Clues

Can these detectives solve the case before they become part of the plot?  A cheerleader throws herself off a bridge and only two people know why, in Maggie Thrash‘s We Know It Was You; teens addicted to true crime try to solve a murder with the killer hot on their heels, in Sara Shepard‘s The Amateurs Book 1. ; a ghostly lady tries to unravel the mystery behind her own death, in William Ritter‘s Ghostly Echoes: A Jackaby Novel; a mother pursues every clue to find her missing daughter in Geoffrey Philp‘s Garvey’s Ghost

Reading Jamaica: Fresh Poetry and Prose
Saturday, November 19 @ 4:30 pm


In Garfield Ellis’s novel, The Angels’ Share, a Jamaican father and his adult son travel across the island together in a touching and humorous novel that explores family reconciliation. A-dZiko Simba Gegele’s debut YA novel, All Over Again, is a hilarious and enchanting coming-of-age story about a young boy who goes through the trials and joys of puberty. Tanya Shirley’s latest collection of poetry, The Merchant of Feathers, longlisted for the 2015 Bocas Prize for Caribbean Literature, is full of poems that have their finger on the pulse of contemporary Jamaica in all its exuberance and brokenness.
In Geoffrey Philp‘s Garvey’s Ghost, a mother pursues every clue to find her missing daughter  Moderated by Kellie Magnus.
