It’s a chance encounter. A woman entering a parking garage comes face-to-face with three burly men on their way out. Thinking nothing of it, she goes on her way. She doesn’t know the three men just robbed and killed someone. In Storm Prey, the twentieth title in the Prey series by suspense author John Sandford, that meeting sets in motion a risky murder plot when the killers set out to find the only person who can tie them to their crime. Sandford will read from and discuss Storm Prey today at 6:30 p.m. Murder by the Book, 2342 Bissonnet. For information, call 713-524-8597 or visit www.murderbooks.com. Free.
