Past: Book Signing with Mark Bliss

Mark Bliss will be signing copies of his book, "Foul Rising," from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Glenn House. "Foul Rising" is Bliss' first novel and is centered in the fictitious, present-day Southeast Missouri, Mississippi River town of Elmwood. A flood waters rise in the city, which has many similarities to Cape Girardeau, so do tension between city dwellers there and rural residents across the Big Muddy whee homes and farmland are being flooded. A recent murder, believed to be linked to this conflict, puts newspaper reporter Connor Tate and fellow reporter Rachel Short on a who-don-it trail to find the murderer.
