Non-fiction fans, this one’s for you. We’ve wanted to entice Patrick Radden Keefe (Say Nothing, Empire of Pain) to Calgary for years. And our time has come: The New Yorker‘s master of investigative narrative has added a Calgary stop on the world tour for his highly-anticipated new book, London Falling: A Mysterious Death in a Gilded City and a Family’s Search for Truth.

The conversation, hosted by Shelley Youngblut, includes an audience Q & A and book signing, fuelled by Shelf Life Books.
