Murder, Mystery & the FBI with Andrea Kane at Long Hill Library - April 30 @ 7pm

Andrea Kane, a New York Times best selling author, will be at the Long Hill Township Library on Monday, April 30 at 7:00pm.


In addition to talking about mysteries and forensics, Ms. Kane will discuss her work with the FBI which helps creates realism in her novels. Who doesn't find the FBI fascinating!


Please join us for what will be a lively event. Please register for "Murder, Mystery & the FBI with Andrea Kane" by contacting the Long Hill Library, 917 Valley Road, Gillette, NJ, 07933 (phone 908-647-2088).


Andrea’s psychological thriller, THE GIRL WHO DISAPPEARED TWICE, became an instant New York Times bestseller, continuing her long string of smash hits. It debuted Forensic Instincts, an eclectic team of maverick investigators, each with different talents and personalities, all with one common bond—a blatant disregard for authority. THE MAN WITHOUT A FACE is the encore novel in the Forensic Instincts series. Armed with skills and talents honed by years in the FBI, Special Forces, and training in behavioral and forensic psychology, the Forensic Instincts team solves seemingly impossible cases while walking a fine line between assisting and enraging law enforcement.


With a worldwide following and novels translated into more than twenty languages, Kane is also the author of eight additional psychological thrillers and fourteen historical romances. She lives in New Jersey with her family, where she is conspiring with Forensic Instincts on new ways to disrupt the status quo.
