DEAD CONNECTION - Day 3- July 18

[Alafair Burke]

Landed in Chicago without a hitch in time to for a call-in with NPR's Talk of the Nation. I think many of you would enjoy the brief interview about readers who skip to the end of the book first. Listen to it here:

We had a very small, intimate crowd at Centuries & Sleuths thanks to the threat of buckets of rain. (Thanks tons to those of you who made it!) I would have paused to take a photo of me ankle-deep in rain to grab late-nigh deep dish pizza, but it was too darn wet out.

I did fit in a brief run pre-rain and ran into one of my most talented Hofstra law students. The world is indeed a small place.

Hope to run into some of you soon.
