At Florey's Book Co.
Local author June Ahern will discuss her novel "The Skye in June". It is a coming of age story about the MacDonald family and their youngest child, June, who has an uniqueness that attracts unusual people: she's fey prophesies an old gypsy.
The story unfolds in Glasgow Scotland with Cathy, the mother, riding in the back of a taxi on her way to the hospital to deliver yet another bairn (child.) Cathy defies her husband, Jimmy, by naming their newborn daughter June rather than after a saint, as was their Catholic tradition. Jimmy is furious saying the name is a pagan one. The decision sets the MacDonald's on a course that will ultimately threaten the family's very foundation...
Ms. Ahern will offer a free mini psychic reading with the purchase of the book.
