Angels of Venice author T.R. Foster on Friday the 13th!
Start: 7:00 pm
End: 8:30 pm

Join us for a dark and spooky thriller on a dark and spooky Friday the 13th! 

Venice, New York, is a poor and gritty town caught in the grip of something dark. A series of homicides lead chief of police, Eliza Hamilton, on a hunt for a killer. As the investigation mounts, evidence begins to point in a strange direction... could this gruesome present be the result of Eliza's childhood fantasies? Imagination has spawned reality as these gruesome killings pile up to reveal an uncertain future for both the chief and the town. The motive behind the murders will lead to the discovery of human-like creatures ("Angels") who have twisted the town's desires to suit their own purposes.

Eliza will need to make some tough choices if she wants to solve this mystery, but can she look beyond her own troubled past before she's consumed by the bloodshed?

T.R. Foster is a local author. Let's support our local writers!

Why Shop Indie?

For every $100 you spend at a local indie business, $68 will stay in the community. When you spend that same $100 at a national chain, only $43 stays in your community.

Local businesses carry a wider array of unique products because they buy for their own market: the people in their community. They know you and know what you like and want.

You wouldn’t want your house to look like everyone else’s in the U.S. Why would you want your community to look that way? More diversity in your community enhances its appeal.

Even more reasons to shop indie...
