FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
John Hart to Discuss Latest Book at Book Talk and Signing at Fiction Addiction
John Hart, the only writer in history to win consecutive Edgar Awards for Best Novel, will discuss his latest book, The Hush (St. Martin's press, hardcover, $27.99, on sale 2/27/18), at Fiction Addiction on Saturday, March 3rd, at 4pm.
There are two ticket options for this event. The $30 ticket admits one, guarantees a seat, and includes a copy of The Hush. The $10 ticket is standing room only, admits one, and can be redeemed for $10 off merchandise purchased at the event. If seats do not sell out, we will seat standing room customers in the order they signed up. Tickets and books can be purchased online, at the store, or by calling Fiction Addiction at 864-675-0540.
 Building on the world first seen in The Last Child ("A magnificent creation" -The Washington Post), John Hart delivers a stunning vision of a secret world, rarely seen.
It's been ten years since the events that changed Johnny Merrimon's life and rocked his hometown to the core. Since then, Johnny has fought to maintain his privacy, but books have been written of his exploits; the fascination remains. Living alone on six thousand acres of once-sacred land, Johnny's only connection to normal life is his old friend, Jack. They're not boys anymore, but the bonds remain. What they shared. What they lost.
But Jack sees danger in the wild places Johnny calls home; he senses darkness and hunger, an intractable intent. Johnny will discuss none of it, but there are the things he knows, the things he can do. A lesser friend might accept such abilities as a gift, but Jack has felt what moves in the swamp: the cold of it, the unspeakable fear.
More than an exploration of friendship, persistence, and forgotten power, The Hush leaves all categories behind, and cements Hart's status as a writer of unique power.
