Diana McRae reads from "Deerhaven Pines" at Diesel Bookstore

Diesel, A Bookstore in Oakland welcomes local author Diana McRae to the store to celebrate the publication of her new novel, Deerhaven Pines, on Friday, April 20th at 7pm.

Set in the foothills of California in the 1970s, Deerhaven Pines is a riveting new work of speculative fiction. The walls of Deerhaven Forest Hall protect the cherished secrets of its residents, and all that they believe and have guarded for more years than they can count. Lesley Windsor doesn’t realize she is seeking answers when she enters the Hall for the first time. A typical 1970s housewife, she is unprepared for the people, living and otherwise, who populate the hall, and have agendas she can't fathom.

Diana McRae is the author of the mystery All the Muscle You Need, as well as other stories featuring the book's heroine, Eliza Pirex. She lives in Oakland, where she works as a librarian.
