Love history? Love books? Come to Shirley Plantation

images Visit historic Shirley Plantation on the James River on Saturday, December 14 and say hello to several local authors signing their books for Christmas gifts from noon to 4:00. I’ll be there with my Roaring Twenties mystery, The Impersonator, plus my two Christmas books, Williamsburg Christmas and Four Centuries of Virginia Christmas. Maybe I’ll bring Death by Petticoat too . . . and the Governor’s Mansion history, First House. Why not? They all make great gifts for book lovers.
