Jeff Kass: Columbine: A True Crime Story

It's been ten years since the shootings at Columbine shocked the nation. Jeff Kass, a reporter for the Rocky Mountain News at the time, was one of the first reporters on the scene. Now he's written Columbine: A True Crime Story, a Victim, the Killers and the Nation's Search for Answers. Included among the people Kass covered in the book is Houston's Shoels family, whose son Isaiah died at Columbine. Hear the surprising conclusions Kass has reached after years of research (including why Houston probably won't be the site of a similar shooting). 2 p.m. Galleria Barnes & Noble, 5000 Westheimer.
