SUMMARY:Kansas Authors at the Library - Meet Laurie L. Dove
DESCRIPTION: “Dove\, a reporter and creative writing professor in Kansas\, sensitively tackles the systemic crisis that has ripped apart so many Native American communities.”\n—The New York Times \n \nLaurie L. Dove’s debut novel Mask of the Deer woman is a vivid and captivating thriller that has kept readers on the edge of their seats. The novel quickly climbed to the USA Today bestseller list shortly after its release in 2025.  You can meet Dove in person at the library on January\, 29 at 10:30am to hear more about her writing journey and the whirlwind success of her debut novel.  \n  \nMask of the Deer Woman \nTo find a missing young woman\, the new tribal marshal must also find herself. \nAt rock bottom following her daughter’s death\, ex–Chicago detective Carrie Starr has nowhere to go but back to her roots. Starr’s father never talked much about the reservation where he was raised\, but the tribe needs a new marshal as much as Starr needs a place to call home. \nIn the past decade\, too many young women have disappeared from the rez. Some have ended up dead\, others just…gone. Now local college student Chenoa Cloud is missing\, and Starr falls into an investigation that leaves her drowning in memories of her daughter—the girl she failed to save. \nStarr feels lost in this place she thought would welcome her. And when she catches a glimpse of a figure from her father’s stories\, with the body of a woman and the antlers of a deer\, Starr can’t shake the feeling that the fearsome spirit is watching her\, following her. \nWhat she doesn’t know is whether Deer Woman is here to guide her or to seek vengeance for the lost daughters that Starr can never bring home. \nAbout the Author \nLaurie L. Dove is a reporter and editor whose work has appeared in numerous publications and garnered several honors for outstanding journalism. She graduated with a master’s degree in Creative Writing and Literature from Harvard University. She is an adjunct professor who currently lives and writes in Kansas. Find her at lauriedove.com. \n  \nWe will meet in the sun room on the second floor of the library. Space is limited. Please RSVP to let us know you are attending.

SUMMARY:Kansas Authors at the Library - Meet Myron Marcotte
DESCRIPTION:Myron Marcotte was a mine specialist with Strataca the Underground Salt Museum\, for many many years. His extensive knowledge of mining in Hutchinson and the history behind it was an integral part of making Strataca what it is today. He even appeared on Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe in the earlier years of the museum.   \n  \nMarcotte is one of of two authors who put this incredible story into words. Lynn Ledeboaer and Myron Marcotte worked together spending hours diving into extensive research to put together the story of Emerson Carey and the history of his empire in the early history of our community.  \nYou can meet Marcotte in person at the library on January\, 29th as we celebrate Kansas history and Kansas authors.  \nKansas Tycoon Emerson Carey: Building an Empire from Coal\, Ice\, and Salt by Lynn Ledeboer and Myron Marcotte \n“I’ve seen a fly make a bull switch his tail” is a homespun quip attributed to Emerson Carey\, the powerful salt magnate of Hutchinson\, Kansas. True or not\, the quote epitomizes the fearless and tenacious character of the legend who became Reno County’s benefactor. Young\, awestruck Carey arrived in boomtown 1880s Hutchinson and went on to create an immense empire. Coal\, ice\, salt\, strawboard\, egg cases\, bags\, soda ash and streetcars–he presided over it all. From Carey’s sleeping in a coal yard with a quarter in his pocket to the founding of the exclusive Willowbrook community and attaining a net worth of more than $15 million\, authors Lynn Ledeboer and Myron Marcotte relate the epic story. \n
