Author Johnnie Bernhard discusses his regional thriller 'The Witch of Sonora' with moderator James R. Dennis at Twig Book Shop.
Johnnie Bernhard is coming to Twig Book Shop on Thursday, October 15, for a conversation about his newest novel, The Witch of Sonora. He'll be joined by moderator James R. Dennis, who'll lead the discussion, so it's more of a guided talk than a solo reading.
The Witch of Sonora is a regional thriller, and that regional part is where the book gets its footing. It's set in the borderlands, and the conversation will center on the story Bernhard has built there. If you're into thrillers that lean into a specific sense of place, this is exactly the kind of thing Twig does best—bringing an author in to talk through a new book with someone who can help pull the threads out in front of a room.
It's a conversation, not a lecture, and having a moderator like Dennis means the night is built around a dialogue rather than a monologue. You'll hear Bernhard talk about the book, the work that went into it, and the regional details that shape it, with Dennis steering the conversation along. It's the kind of evening where you get to hear an author talk through their process in real time.
