Meet Best-Selling Author J.A. Jance at University Place Library

New York Times best-selling author J.A. Jance is coming to the University Place Pierce County Library on Friday, Feb. 15, at 7 p.m. 

Jance will talk and sign books in the atrium of the University Place Civic and Library Building.

“Pierce County Library System is delighted to host an event with Ms. Jance,” said Neel Parikh, executive director for Pierce County Library. “Community members have asked the Library System to offer author talks and book signings at the new library. Since opening in our new location two years ago, University Place Library has hosted more than 25 authors.”

To attend the free event: visit University Place Library for a free ticket. Limit two per person, while supplies last. Friends of the University Place Library are sponsoring this free event.

A bookseller will be onsite at 6 p.m. to sell books for the event. Jance’s newest book in the Ali Reynolds series—“Deadly Stakes”—is scheduled to be released Feb. 5, and will be available for purchase at the event. “Deadly Stakes” is the eighth book in the series that features Reynolds, who became involved in murder investigations when the end of her high-profile broadcasting career came too soon for the TV journalist.

Readers may find Jance’s books at University Place Library and throughout Pierce County Library System.

Jance is the New York Times best-selling author of the Ali Reynolds series, J.P. Beaumont series, Joanna Brady series and four thrillers about the Walker Family.

She was born in South Dakota and brought up in Bisbee, Ariz. Jance lives in Seattle, Wash. and Tucson, Ariz.
