Author Event: Paula Quig

Paula Quig will join us to talk about her second book, Missing. 

Nearly everyone in Prince Edward County remembers what they were doing when they heard about the disappearance of Crystal Watts. One hot August night, the sixteen-year-old vanished from the summer camp where she had been working as a counsellor, never to be seen again.  Twenty years later, Crystal's childhood friend Sarah returns to The County to find out what happened that horrible night. Sarah soon finds herself immersed in the memories of that summer, and of her time at Camp Adventure with Crystal and their other childhood friend Lacey. In her search for the truth, Sarah realizes that she may not actually be prepared for what she will learn about the people in her hometown, or about herself.

Join us to hear more about the key themes and lessons learned from Missing, notably around the issues of bullying and inclusivity.  Paula’s talk will be followed by a short “Ask the Author Anything” session and a sneak peek at her work in progress, The Wish.

The author will have copies of the book available for sale after the talk.
