The Friends of the East Manatee Library at Lakewood Ranch will host New York Times best-selling author Heather Graham. Graham will share stories about her career and read excerpts from her new book, which was released on March 23, 2021. Danger in Numbers takes place on the edge of the Everglades, where an eerie crime scene sets off an investigation that sends two agents deep into a world of corrupted faith, greed and deadly secrets. A ritualistic murder on the side of a remote road brings in the Florida state police. Registration is open for the virtual event that takes place on Sunday, April 11, 2021 beginning at 1 p.m. Tickets begin at $15 and can be purchased here.

Graham majored in theater arts at the University of South Florida. She has written more than 200 novels and novellas including category, suspense, historical romance, vampire fiction, time travel, occult and Christmas family fare.
