Sinister Spring – Saturday, April 11, 2026

Sinister Spring

Spend the afternoon with people who kill for fun! Ten local mystery authors will join “Murder She Wrote” co-author Terrie Farley Moran on Saturday, April 11, 2026, for an afternoon of talking about what makes a good mystery, what the challenges are writing a mystery series, and where the ideas to kill people originate.

Guest of Honor Terrie Farley Moran will join us for an in-person interview to talk about her role “Co-authoring” the Murder She Wrote books with Jessica Fletcher and answer questions from the audience. Each local author will have five minutes to read from their books or tell you about their novels.

There will also be book character costume contest for kids, a detective costume contest for adults, and all of the authors – including Terrie – will sign and sell their books.

Sinister Spring is co-hosted by the Clifton Park Halfmoon Public Library and the Upper Hudson Chapter of Sisters in Crime.
