About the Event

In Amy Tintera’s Listen for the Lie, Lucy returns to her Texas small town when a hit true crime podcast decides to investigate her best friend’s murder… even though Lucy might have been the one who did it. Nishita Parekh’s The Night of the Storm features a multigenerational Indian-American family who find themselves trapped by floodwaters in a house with a murderer — an inventive update of the classic locked-room mystery. A conversation that will keep you on the edge of your seat!

4/11 UPDATE: Unfortunately, Amy Tintera has had to cancel her appearance at the 12th annual San Antonio Book Festival. The session will go on without her.
