River Bend Bookshop is delighted to host one of our favorite local authors, Megan Collins, in celebration of the paperback release of her debut The Winter Sister. Secrets between sisters are sacred; silence is deadly. Inspired by the tragic myth of Persephone, Megan Collins’ debut thriller, THE WINTER SISTER captures the powerful tale of a young woman who returns home to look after her estranged and now cancer-stricken mother and begins a perilous hunt to solve her sister’s murder, long a cold case.
