At the mouth of the Kenai River in 1796, a Russian fort is tormented by the wails of a ghost — though she was once thought only “a fairy tale to scare children and warn men against mistreating women.” That’s the premise of “The Ghost of the Kenai,” - Jake Dye of the Homer News (Off the Shelf: A haunting close to home)

Following the author talk/reading there will be a book signing. Copies of the book will be available for purchase for $14.95 through the Homer Bookstore.
