Palisadian author Lowell Cauffiel will read and sign copies of “Below the Line: A Hollywood Crime Novel” at Collections Antiques and Books on Wednesday, May 24, from 6:30 to 8 p.m.
“Cauffiel, a 22-year resident of the Palisades, turned to novels and screenwriting following an award-winning career as a Detroit journalist and the publication of his five true crime books, including the New York Times bestseller ‘House of Secrets’ and his critically acclaimed debut ‘Masquerade: A True Story of Seduction, Compulsion and Murder,’” according to a press release.
“Below the Line: A Hollywood Crime Novel” follows the story of a “corrupt Hollywood producer, an ex-Detroit homicide cop with a conscience and a career criminal without one” who are all faced with the same quarry: a missing mother and her teenage daughter.
“Trouble is bound to ensue,” according to a synopsis of the book, which was published May 2, “and it does, with shocking results.”
Cauffiel has been described as “an impeccable researcher,” and has written fiction and nonfiction, taking him “everywhere from the president’s private living quarters in the White House to the confines of dangerous urban dope dens.”
The reading and author Q&A will begin at 7 p.m. Collections Antiques and Books is located at 15236 Antioch Street.
