TWO GREAT EVENTS AT WORDS TODAY

Former Maplewood resident and award-winning author Brad Parks will be at WORDS Bookstore (179 Maplewood Ave, Maplewood, NJ 973-763-9500) on Saturday March 8th at 5pm to discuss his new book, THE PLAYER.

He’ll also be joined by members of The Strollers to premiere “An Ode to Maplewood,” a song written exclusively for this appearance. And the first twenty people to arrive at the event will receive a “Carter Ross Survival Kit,” named after the wisecracking investigative newspaper reporter who is the protagonist of Parks’s award-winning crime fiction series.

The series is set in and around Newark, New Jersey, and throughout the first four books, Parks tackled nearly every aspect of the Garden State’s colorful lore, except …

Toxic waste and the mob.
