The Rhinelander District Library continues its popular 2013 Author Series Monday, Nov. 11 at 6:30 p.m. with international best-selling author Brian Freeman.
The “Meet and Greet” and book signing begins at 6 p.m. and continues after the presentation.

Brian Freeman is an international bestselling author of “psychological suspense novels,” with his books selling in 46 countries and 20 languages.

The drama in Freeman’s books is driven by the emotions and secrets of the characters.

“My goal is to write books with haunting characters and a lightning-fast pace,” Freeman said. “My stories are about the hidden intimate motives that draw people across some terrible lines. The twists and turns keep you turning the pages, and each piece in the puzzle gives you new insight into the heroes, victims, and villains. I don’t like books where the characters are all good or all bad. I want them to live in the real world, where morality means tough choices and a lot of shades of gray. I hope that’s why readers relate so intensely to the people in my books.”

Freeman’s books have been widely recognized as extraordinary, with multiple award winners. His seventh novel, Spilled Blood, won the award for Best Hardcover Novel in the annual Thriller Awards presented by the International Thriller Writers organization, and his fifth novel, The Burying Place, was a finalist for the same award. His sixth novel, The Bone House, was a finalist for Best Audiobook of the Year in Thriller/Suspense. His debut thriller, Immoral, won the Macavity Award and was a nominee for the Edgar, Dagger, Anthony and Barry awards for best first novel. Immoral was also named an International Book of the Month by book clubs around the world. His eighth and newest novel is The Cold Nowhere.

Funding for this event is provided by Northern Arts Council, and refreshments will be served.
