Emily Schultz has flirted with the paranormal and outrageous satire in previous books, but her new novel, Men Walking On Water (one of our must-read books of 2017), has a very different vibe. It’s Prohibition, and the repercussions of a car accident ricochet through the smuggling community. Packed with details about rum-running and the perils of the 18th Amendment, the novel sheds light on the ways desperation fuels deceit when it comes to both business and personal relationships. Give yourself a chunk of time – this is a real page-turner. Type Books on Queen. 7 pm. FREE. See listing.
