Rosemary Reeve book-signing

Mystery writer Rosemary Reeve will read from and sign her new, Bellingham-based legal thriller, “Only the Good,” at Village Books on November 9, 7 p.m., in the Readings Gallery.

“Only the Good” is the third in Ms. Reeve’s popular legal mystery series about Seattle attorney Jack Hart. In “Only the Good,” Jack is cleaning up the mess his long-lost father left behind. As he juggles his dad’s polluting Bellingham paper mill, his dad’s grand, empty house on Orcas Island, and his dad’s other family, who may not be what they seem, Jack begins to suspect that his father may still be alive – but may want Jack dead.
