Elizabeth Kostova

St. Louis County Library Foundation and The Novel Neighbor Present Acclaimed Novelist Elizabeth Kostova

Author of “Mystery Play”

#1 bestselling author Elizabeth Kostova returns to the thrilling world of her hit novel, “The Historian.” After Jay Turner’s beloved mother passes away, a deliveryman leaves behind a package containing an antique volume—and two bloody footprints. As a young scholar, his mother had been given the medieval book—one of a set commissioned by Vlad Țepeș, otherwise known as Dracula, just before his death in 1477. She’d always warned Jay of the dangers associated with it, and had donated it to a museum before she died…yet here it is, back in his possession. In this epic and riveting tale, Elizabeth Kostova takes us deep into the Gilded Age in pursuit of an ancient evil. 

Doors open at 6:00 p.m. Seating is limited; early arrival is highly recommended. This event is free and open to the public.

Books available from The Novel Neighbor.
