About this Event
Patricia Skalka is the author of the popular Dave Cubiak Door County mystery series. She’s won both the Midwest Book Award for Best Thriller/Mystery and the Edna Ferber Fiction Book Award. During the pandemic, USA Today named Death Stalks Door County, the first Cubiak mystery, as the book to represent Wisconsin in its special feature: “50 States/50 Books to Read.”
The seven volumes in the award-winning Dave Cubiak Door County Mystery series pit a former Chicago homicide detective against a roster of clever killers on Wisconsin’s Door County peninsula. Haunted by a tragic past, Sheriff Cubiak solves crimes that are rooted in the past. Set against the backdrop of stunning natural beauty in Wisconsin’s Door County, these regional mysteries deal with universal themes and track Cubiak for twenty years as he moves forward in life. The series kicks off with Death Stalks Door County and continues through Death Casts a Shadow.
Join author Patricia Skalka as she discusses the inspirational sparks behind the series and traces her protagonist’s ongoing struggle with issues of grief and loss. We will also be treated to a preview of her upcoming book. Boswell Books will be present to handle book sales. Debit and credit cards ONLY.
