Scarborough Pulbic Library will host a virtual conversation with Matt Cost on Wednesday, June 30 at 6:30 p.m. via Zoom. In addition to discussing his selection as a 2021 Read ME author, we’ll hear about his path to becoming a published author, the nuances of researching and writing mysteries versus historical fiction, and the creation of the fictional town Port Essex featured in his upcoming release Wolfe Trap, the first installment in his new Clay Wolfe mystery series. Cost is the author of the Goff Langdon Mainely Mystery Series as well as historical fiction, including “I am Cuba: Fidel Castro and the Cuban Revolution” and the forthcoming “Love in a Time of Hate: New Orleans During Reconstruction.” Register for the Zoom link at scarboroughlibrary.org/events
