Author James King at Gaithersburg Book Festival

If you are in the Maryland/DC area, be sure to meet Ghost Burglar co-author James King at the Gaithersburg Book Festival on Saturday, May 18. Stop by and get the inside scoop on King’s investigation into Bernard Welch and, if you ask nicely, maybe even get an autograph for your copy of Ghost Burglar!

King will be at the Maryland’s Writer’s Association (Montgomery County Chapter) tent, as well as the Novel Places Bookstore tent. The festival runs from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and is located on the Gaithersburg City Hall grounds.
