Highlands Ranch: Hilary Davidson, who won the Anthony Award for Best First Novel for The Damage Done, will read from and sign her new mystery Evil in All Its Disguises (Tor). Set in the luxurious Hotel Cerón in Acapulco, Davidson’s novel is a thrilling story of paranoia, vengeance, and murder. When travel writer Lily Moore joins a group of journalists for an all-expenses-paid press junket to Acapulco, she expects sun, sand, and
margaritas. Instead, she finds that the Mexican city, once the
playground of Hollywood stars, is a place of faded glamour and rising
crime. Even the luxurious Hotel Cerón, isolated from the rest of the
town, seems disturbing to her, with its grand, empty rooms,
ever-watchful staff, and armed guards patrolling the grounds.Lily isn’t the only one who suspects something rotten under the hotel’s opulent facade. Can’t make it to the signing? Request an autographed copy here: books@tatteredcover.com Hilary Davidson’s website

Colfax Avenue: Naomi Hirahara, the Edgar Award-winning author of the Mas Arai mystery series, will discuss her new novel Strawberry Yellow (Prospect Park Books), starring the curmudgeonly Japanese American gardener, Hiroshima survivor, gambler, widower, grandfather, and unwitting detective Mas Arai. In this fifth book, he returns to the strawberry farms of his youth in Watsonville, California, where the young Mas had first arrived from Japan in the 1940s. There to attend a cousin's funeral, he encounters murder, family intrigue, and danger."Mas, less an amateur detective than a cranky, accidental one, is what
makes the story work. His obdurance, his skill as a listener, and even
his broken English are charming in a quirky, uncomplicated way."
