The Mark Twain House & Museum presents author and Twain House trustee David Baldacci, who will talk about his new thriller, Redemption. This Mark My Words event takes place on Thursday, May 16, at 7 p.m.
Redemption is the fifth work in the wildly popular Amos Decker detective series, which began in 2015 with Memory Man. Decker’s special power is total recall, a result of his brain’s rewiring itself after a blow to the head in a football game.
The new book circles back to Decker’s first case, in which he may have made a mistake as a rookie detective, leading to conviction of the wrong man. Redemption will be published April 16.
Tickets to the talk alone are $40 and include a copy of Redemption.
Tickets to the talk (including a copy of the book) PLUS a VIP reception in the museum’s Hal Holbrook Hall preceding the talk are $90.
