Does digging through the Mayan jungle seem too much like hard work? Well, put your sleuthing skills to work this September in pursuit of clues on the printed page instead! Beginning September 15th, TKE is one of the fifty independent bookstores across the country participating in a treasure hunt in celebration of Michelle Moran’s latest novel, Cleopatra’s Daughter. We have concealed, somewhere on our shelves, a red ribbon bearing the seal of a true literary archaeologist. To find the clues that will lead you to the ribbons, just go to www.michellemoran.com/treasurehunt.htm. The clues will test your knowledge of literature as you attempt to pinpoint the book where the ribbon lies waiting for you. For the lucky winner who finds the ribbon, simply present it at the front counter to claim your treasure chest of prizes, including gold-plated Cleopatra earrings, a Roman artifact with a certificate of authenticity, plus a signed copy of Michelle Moran’s latest novel, Cleopatra’s Daughter. Puzzle through the clues and find them… if you dare! The 50 winners across the country will also be recognized on MichelleMoran.com!

Start: 7:00 pm

Local historian Gary Topping will sign The Story of the Cathedral of the Madeleine ($16.95,
Sagebrush Press) which narrates the founding and growth of the Roman
