Downtown Books is very pleased to announce that for October’s First Friday Book Signing they will be joined by Manteo resident, local therapist and published author Kathleen Brehony.

Kathleen is the proud author of several previous personal growth titles (After the Darkest Hour, Awakening at Midlife) and has just released her first novel, The Third Act. Billed as ‘a spicy Lesbian romance’ her book has garnered great attention and reviews in just the few short weeks it has been out.

‘Shannon O’Connell is broken. She is sixty-five years old and looks twenty years younger – there’s not much that makes her happy. Her partner of thirty years left her for a mutual friend offering only the cliche “I love you, but I’m not in love with you.” Her mother is disappearing before her eyes with dementia. And now, the death of her best friend – Linda- brings her to her knees. In this dark night of the soul – filled with endings — she could not have predicted that this moment could be a beginning.’

Come celebrate The Third Act with Kathleen who will be with us from 6pm – 8pm, Friday October 4, signing books, meeting fans and greeting friends! Call 252-473-1056 to reserve your copy or visit duckscottage.com to have a signed copy shipped after the event. Downtown Books is located at 103 Sir Walter Raleigh Street in beautiful downtown Manteo.

First Friday is a fun, free, family friendly event taking place throughout downtown Manteo featuring live music, later shop hours, restaurant specials, art show openings, trunk shows, book signings and more. It’s a great night to call up your friends and say ‘meet me in Manteo! but first, meet me at the bookstore and come meet Kathleen Brehony!’
