“Takewing a.m”. Book launch at the Cornwall Public Library

Brenda Wilson launched her debut novel “Takewing a.m.” on November 6, at the Cornwall Public Library. She wanted to launch the book in the Cornwall area near to the rural place where the story is set.

Subtitled, “Mysteries, Murders and Monarchs, Brenda’s book talk gave her audience just enough clues to keep them guessing right until the end. “All the answers are in the book so be patient and all will be revealed” In the audience were teachers, librarians, writers, monarch butterfly enthusiasts to name a few. “It’s always wonderful to return to Glengarry. I can say that I was really reborn here, and “Takewing a.m.” is, among other things, about rebirth”.
