An Unexpected Guest by Bruce Johnson

2/18/2011 -

Called "a skillful blend of history and mystery," Bruce Johnson's latest book takes place at the historic Grove Park Inn on the night of August 27, 1918. Inspired by stories swirling around the Inn's most infamous guest - the ghostly Pink Lady - Johnson takes us back to the night when Henry Ford, Thomas Edison and a swarm of national newspaper reporters were gathered at The Grove Park Inn - along with one unexpected guest: the body of a beautiful young woman in a flowing pink gown. Packed with names, events and characters familiar to Asheville residents, this tale is sure to entertain (and surprise) every reader.

Signed, first-edition books will be available at the Arts & Crafts Conference February 18 - 20, 2011.
