Join Lee Doty for a reading and discussion of her new book. In ‘Last Casualty,’ Norma Bergen, an abrasive but lovable lawyer-between-jobs, discovers a young woman's body on the Antietam Battlefield. When her teenage daughter realizes the person who died was her close friend, she falls into an alarming depression, driving Norma to bring the killer to justice. Norma's husband wants to help, in between boarding, training, and instructing on their new horse farm, but no one can help Norma when she faces an unexpected, devastating loss. The second murder mystery in the Norma Bergen series, ‘Last Casualty’ delivers all the humor, heartache, and triumph of real life.
Doty's short fiction and poetry have appeared in numerous publications, including 'Rising Tide,' 'Ghost Stories of Shepherdstown' and 'Philadelphia Stories.' Her novel 'Tidal Kin,' the first in the Normal Bergen series, won an honorable mention in the 2017 New England Book Festival.
