BOOK LAUNCH OF CITY GONE ASKEW – AUGUST 1st @ 5:30 PM
We hope you will join us for the launch of Maine Author Matt Cost’s newest book here at the Louis T. Graves Memorial Public Library, 18 Maine Street, Kennebunkport on Thursday, August 1 at 5:30 pm. Cost’s talk will feature his latest release in the Brooklyn 8 Ballo PI Series City Gone Askew. Cost is the highly acclaimed, award-winning author of the Mainely Mystery series. The first book in that series, Mainely Power, was selected as the Maine Humanities Council Read ME Fiction Book of 2020. I Am Cuba: Fidel Castro and the Cuban Revolution was his first traditionally published novel.
Matt Cost was a history major at Trinity College. He owned a mystery bookstore, a video store, and a gym, before serving a ten-year sentence as a junior high school teacher. In 2014 he was released and began writing. And that’s what he does. He writes histories and mysteries. Cost now lives in Brunswick, Maine, with his wife, Harper. There are four grown children: Brittany, Pearson, Miranda, and Ryan. A chocolate Lab and a basset hound round out the mix. He now spends his days at the computer, writing.
Copies of the book will be for sale and signing after the discussion. For more information, please give us a call at 967-2778.
