SUMMARY:Celebrate the Launch of Novel TREAD LIGHTLY with Elizabeth Kemp at Books Inc. in Campbell, CA
DESCRIPTION:Join Elizabeth Kemp, author of new domestic thriller Tread Lightly, at Books Inc. in Campbell, CA on Friday, October 24th at 7pm to celebrate the release of her new book. She’ll be in conversation with author Jordan Rosenfeld (Women in Red) and will sign books after conversation!\nBooks will be available to purchase at the event.\nFor more information, please visit Books Inc’s events page here.\nEVENT LOCATION:\n1875 S Bascom Ave. #600\nCampbell, CA\nAbout Tread Lightly:\nA stay-at-home mom with a past navigates a murder in Silicon Valley…\nWhen a lifeguard’s body is found at the local pool where Tierney lap swims daily, she is pulled back into the life she thought she had left behind when she was a member of the Crisis Intervention Squad in Dublin, Ireland. A former hostage negotiator turned stay-at-home mom, her move to Silicon Valley for her husband’s job offered the contrast of a calm, domestic life. But this murder investigation disrupts all that, connecting to an event in her past, and threatening to overwhelm her.\nOn the domestic front, the cliques at her kindergartener’s new private school aren’t making it easy for her to fit in either. This ‘fish out of water’ story is a domestic thriller set amid a backdrop of the tech industry’s 2007 stock-option backdating scandal.\nAs Tierney struggles with survivor’s guilt from her previous employment and wrestles with the motherhood/career balancing act, there’s still a murder to be solved. And in helping solve it, Tierney discovers the assumptions we make about people can be completely incorrect—even when those people are ourselves.\nAbout Elizabeth Kemp:\nElizabeth Kemp was born and raised in California, and lives in Silicon Valley with her high school sweetheart husband. She studied public relations at the University of Southern California, earned an MBA from Santa Clara University, and led a successful career in high-tech marketing communications before becoming a stay-at-home mom. That decision helped rekindle her love of reading for fun and enabled her to pursue writing full-time. When away from her laptop, Elizabeth enjoys lap swimming, hiking, pickleball, and golf. Tread Lightly is her first novel.\nAbout Women in Red:\nDead-broke single mother Stella Russo, daughter of a world-class prima ballerina, has nearly given up on her own professional aspirations–much less true love–when a dazzling impromptu stunt by a mysterious troupe reminds her just how empowering performing onstage can be. Convincing herself that a dependable gig with such a company just might be the ticket to a better life for her musical-prodigy daughter and now-invalid mother, Stella takes a giant jeté of faith and joins up. When she lands in the clutches of an enigmatic and demanding impresario bent on making her his star at any cost, she becomes entangled in the troupe’s secrets. Women in Red draws readers into the dark, dangerous, and dramatically sexy underworld of dance–but also into the longing of every living, breathing being for a family of one’s own.\n\nAbout Jordan Rosenfeld:\nJordan Rosenfeld is also author of the novels Fallout and Forged in Grace and seven books on the craft of writing including the bestselling Make a Scene, Writing the Intimate Character, A Writer’s Guide to Persistence, Writing Deep Scenes, Write Free and The Sound of Story. Jordan’s articles and essays have been published in hundreds of publications, such as The Atlantic, LitHub, The New York Times, The Rumpus, Salon, Scientific American, and many more. Jordan teaches writing classes online and at numerous conferences. She is a freelance manuscript editor and writing coach, and author of the popular Substack Writing in the Pause. \n
