Guest Speaker Mark Murphy expected Oct. 9

The Savannah Writers Group is pleased to host guest speaker Mark Murphy at the October 9 meeting.

Dr. Mark Murphy, local gastroenterologist and writer, will speak to the Savannah Writers Group at their regular meeting October 9, 7:00 PM at the Atlanta Bread Company in the Twelve Oaks Shopping Center, Abercorn Street, Savannah, GA. Dr. Murphy is receiving increasing recognition for his writing and is scheduled to appear at the 2013 Savannah Book festival with his new book, The Shadow Man, a mystery set in Savannah.

You can access Murphy's blog here.

His book is available for purchase at Amazon. Be sure to look for the kindle version as well.

Amazon describes the thriller this way:

Savannah surgeon Malcolm King had a perfect life--a loving wife, devoted daughter, and a thriving medical practice. But when a random airport parking lot hit-and-run links him to a dead body in a Florida hotel and an acquaintance is found dismembered and stuffed into a garbage bag, Malcolm finds himself on the run as a suspected serial killer. But he's no murderer. Or is he? 

Who is the mysterious Thin Man who lurks at the edges of his vision? Are the ravens that crowd the skies overhead a warning of impending doom--or do they exist at all? 

With the help of Seminole tracker Billy Littlebear, Malcolm tries to untangle the web of clues left behind by a mysterious chameleon-like killer known as the Shadow Man. But will he be too late? The Shadow Man is a complex, atmospheric thriller in the tradition of Stephen King. Darkly evocative and relentless in its twists and turns, it dares the reader to put it down--even for a minute.

Though Murphy is scheduled to speak at the October 9 meeting, there is also a meeting on Tuesday, September 25th, also a 7:00 PM at the Atlanta Bread Company.
