Christopher Swann is the author of Shadow of the Lions. He will be in conversation with Wiley Cash, author of The Last Ballad.

Ethan Faulkner is a precocious child with a brilliant but troublesome sister, a war vet for a father, and a weary mother trying to manage their family. One night a young woman rings their doorbell, desperate to hide from two men who are pursuing her, when one of the two barges in after her. The struggle leaves both of Ethan's parents dead. Years later, when news of a brutal murder breaks with evidence pointing to Ethan as the prime suspect, all the painful memories of his past come rushing to meet him. Lyrically conveyed with emotion and nuance, this is a powerful story about family, vengeance, and how some actions echo through the years with irreparable consequences.
