SUMMARY:Join Valerie Saul At Book Passage with Mary Alice Stephens
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Book Passage for an author event in celebration of Valerie Saul’s riveting and utterly charming debut novel, The Badass Widows: A Mystery. Valerie will be joined in conversation with Mary Alice Stephens, the author of Uncorked ( https://www.bookpassage.com/book/9798897409990 )!\n\nABOUT THE BOOK\nHow do widows get through their grief? They become bad asses and form a secret band of crime fighters, of course!\nFormer FBI agent Beth Winstead has recently lost her husband after a long isolating decline. Determined to build a new life, she joins a rowing club on San Francisco Bay. When Beth rescues widowed rape victim Elena from a derelict sailboat, her sense of purpose is rekindled. They are soon joined by widows Anneke and Zoe and, almost as a joke, they form a secret group of do-gooder crime fighters. They begin small but before long, they’re committing bold acts of secret justice and are hooked on the “rush” it provides. Meanwhile, someone is stalking Beth and Elena. And not every mission is successful. A betrayal from within puts all of their lives in danger. In the end, the widows must decide whether they have found their new calling or made a foolish and dangerous mistake.\n \n \nABOUT THE AUTHOR\nDebut novelist Valerie Saul earned a doctorate in audiology, a master’s degree in speech pathology and a bachelor’s degree in psychology followed by an unconventional career in hearing healthcare in the US, New Zealand, South Korea\nand Singapore before beginning a career as a writer. A resident of Mill Valley, she is an alum of the Stanford Continuing Studies Creative Writing program. When\nnot writing about badass older women, she likes to hike the Marin headlands with her husband or row a shell on San Francisco Bay.\n
