MN Reads: "The Silver Box" by Margi Preus

Margi Preus was disappointed when her books, Village of Scoundrels and The Littlest Voyageur, came out last spring at the same time the pandemic was shutting everything down.

Six months later, Margi has published the final book in her Enchantment Lake series (a book earlier than she'd originally planned), owned her unique approach to writing mystery books (flying in the face of conventional wisdom) and is looking forward to welcoming friends and family from all over the world to her latest book launch, next Tuesday, October 6 at 7pm.

For more information about the virtual launch for The Silver Box, hosted by Zenith Books and including a conversation with illustrator Anders Hanson, you can register here.

Lisa Johnson started her broadcast career anchoring the television news at her high school and spinning country music at KWWK/KOLM Radio in Rochester, Minnesota. She was a reporter and news anchor at KTHI in Fargo, ND (not to mention the host of a children's program called "Lisa's Lane") and a radio reporter and anchor in Moorhead, Bismarck, Wahpeton and Fergus Falls.Since 1991, she has hosted Northland Morning on KUMD. One of the best parts of her job includes "paying it forward" by mentoring upcoming journalists and broadcasters on the student news team that helps produce Northland Morning. She also loves introducing the different people she meets in her job to one another, helping to forge new "community connections" and partnerships.Lisa has amassed a book collection weighing over two tons, and she enjoys reading, photography, volunteering with Animal Allies Humane Society and fantasizing about farmland. She goes to bed at 8pm, long before her daughter, two cats, or three dogs.
