Freeport Community Library will host an evening with Maine crime novelist Gerry Boyle on Friday at 7 p.m.
In 1993, Boyle’s first novel, “Deadline,” introduced the world to Jack McMorrow, a New York Times reporter who had relocated to the remote mill town of Androscoggin, Maine, to run a weekly newspaper. When the newspaper’s photographer is found drowned in a paper mill canal, McMorrow realizes that even this small town is a dangerous place for anyone digging into its secrets.
Subsequent titles in the McMorrow series include “Once Burned,” “Lifeline,” “Potshot,” “Bloodline,” “Borderline,” “Cover Story,” “Pretty Dead,” “Home Body” and “Damaged Goods.” The most recent book in the series, “Straw Man,” was released in May.This event is offered free of charge to the general public with limited seating. The library’s community meeting doors will open at 6:30 p.m.
