Saturday, May 4th, 1:00 p.m., Mike Befeler - MURDER in the MUSEO KIRCHERIANO and  A MYSTERY YARN  - Talk & Signing
In Murder in the Museo Kircheriano, Jesuit priest Athanasius Kircher created the world’s most amazing museum in the mid seventeenth century Vatican. He was brilliant and reputed to be the last man to know everything. He also bordered on being a con man. When Queen Christina abdicates her throne in Sweden, converts to Catholicism and visits Kircher’s museum, she and Kircher discover a dead body. They team up to solve the mystery of the murdered man, while encountering a secret nephews circle.

Mike will also be talking about his other new novel, A MYSTERY YARN, the third book of the Omipodge trilogy following OLD DETECTIVES HOME and LAST GASP.                 Pru Pendergast becomes entangled in more than yarn when her obnoxious landlord shows up dead in her driftwood creations shop. Pru must escape attacks on her own life and the threat of being arrested while trying to solve the crime and catch the eye of her new sort of boyfriend.
