Seaside Champagne Soiree

June 24, 2021 @ 5:00 pm

Literacy Volunteers of Washington County will host acclaimed thriller authors Deborah Goodrich Royce and Luanne Rice for a Seaside Champagne Soiree as part of the organization’s annual Joyce S. Ahern Speaker Series on Thursday, June 24, at the Ocean House in Watch Hill.

Tickets for the event cost $125 and include a cocktail party and a copy of Royce’s newest psychological thriller, “Ruby Falls.” Both authors will discuss their craft and answer audience questions about their writing before meeting attendees for a book signing.

Deborah Goodrich Royce is the author of “Finding Mrs. Ford” and “Ruby Falls,” which was named by Veranda Magazine as one of the most riveting books of Spring 2021. “Ruby Falls” tells the nail-biting tale of a fragile young actress, the new husband she barely knows, and her growing suspicion that the secrets he harbors may eclipse her own.

Luanne Rice is the New York Times bestselling author of thirty-five novels that have been translated into twenty-four languages. Her bestselling new book, “The Shadow Box,” is a haunting thriller about how far one wife is willing to go to expose the truth—and the lengths someone will go to stop her.

Past Joyce S. Ahern Speaker Series authors include Daniel Silva, Ted Widmer, Dr. Sanjiv Gupta, Jeanne McWilliams Blasberg, and Walter Robinson. This series is a fundraiser for Literacy Volunteers of Washington County, a Westerly-based nonprofit that offers classes and tutoring to help adults improve their reading, writing, and English language skills.
