WAYNE — Cary Memorial Library will host Maine mystery author Maureen Milliken at noon, Monday, Aug. 14.
Milliken, a former journalist, most recently for the Waterville Sentinel, has more than 30 years’ experience at daily newspapers in Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts. She grew up in Augusta and is proud to be part of a three-generation newspaper-editor legacy. She now devotes her time to mystery writing.
According to her website, the Bernie O’Dea mystery series reflects not only her love for all that is Maine, but also her lifelong affection for the newspaper industry and fascination, of course, with the darker side of life. The second in the series, “No News is Bad News,” was released in July. The first, “Cold Hard News,” came out in July 2015. Her third in the series is due out shortly.
Bring a bag lunch; free beverages are provided.
The program is free. The library, 17 Old Winthrop Road, is handicapped accessible. FMI: 685-3612.
