Marcia Leonard speaks about her book, “Fingerprints”

at the Friday Local Author Series

Friday, June 1st at the Portland Public Library

 

Marcia Leonard will speak at the Portland Public Library’s Friday Local Author Series about her book Fingerprints on Friday, June 1st from noon-1:00pm in Meeting Room #5.

Fingerprints is a murder/suspense novel with a love story—and a Multiple Personality Disorder thrown in. It’s horrifying when the police come and arrest Julie’s son Jeffrey for the murder of the doctor whose body she and Jeff found. But it’s also dismaying when tough, independent Julie realizes she’s falling for the lawyer she hired to defend Jeff.  Clark, the lawyer, has his own shocking problems. The woman he goes to visit in the institution is only one of the personalities of his beloved wife—not the one who killed their little daughter.  The doctor's killer is perfectly happy with how the police investigation is turning out. And she’ll kill again to keep it that way.

Will Jeffrey be acquitted and the real killer exposed? Find out where the fingerprints lead.

Over the course of his ten-year career, Iron & Wine’s Sam Beam has become one of today’s greatest story tellers, crafting meticulous tales full of forlorn love, religious imagery and wistful dreams. His studio effort, The Shepherd’s Dog, was widely praised by fans and critics alike. While Beam’s early albums were sparse, intimate solo affairs, Shepherd’s introduced layered textures and poly-rhythmic sounds that allowed his lyrics to spring to life – including on his sonic collage, Kiss Each Other Clean. The result is a brighter, more focused record that retains the idiosyncratic elements that make Iron & Wine such an engaging band.

Wittenberg

Trouble brews in the hallowed halls of Wittenberg University as professors
Martin Luther and Doctor Faustus duel for the allegiance of their pupil—Prince Hamlet. From tennis and beer to soliloquies over skulls, Davalos’s imaginative comedy of 17th century college life mixes slapstick and wordplay with a philosophical exploration of reason versus faith, played out in a zany spin on classic characters—real and imaginary!
