   In Sight Festival is the result of a unique collaboration between the Arts and Culture Colwood Society and Fort Rodd Hill NHS, Parks Canada. As partners in this endeavour, they appreciate the interconnections between the arts, culture, nature, and historical awareness in building strong community bonds. Expanding on last year's inaugural success, Arts and Culture Colwood president, Laura Davis has bravely augmented this year's cultural offerings with more diverse music and an expanded program. Thanks to Parks Canada, the park admission fees have been waived, which makes it a truly affordable event for everyone and a refreshing approach to bringing the community together.

   Please join us in celebrating the launch of new books by two local authors: For the Love of Mystery with Jean Paetkau and Sara Desai!
   The Sinking of Souls is a compelling murder mystery set in historic island locations like Craigdarroch Castle and Ross Bay Cemetery that explores the real sinking of the S.S. Clallam in 1904. JEAN PAETKAU is the Victoria author of the bestselling murder mystery, Blood on the Breakwater. Also set on Vancouver Island, The Sinking of Souls is the second book Paetkau has created in the Breakwater Mystery series. The award-winning journalist has written for radio, film, TV and print. She has written three children's books including Rumpa and the Snufflewort. The author loves photography almost as much as words.
   Diamond necklaces, billionaires, Mafia bosses, and student loans—it’s all in a day’s work for Simi Chopra and her ragtag heist crew in the next romantic-comedy caper from Sara Desai: 'Til Heist do us Part. SARA DESAI has been a lawyer, radio DJ, marathon runner, historian, bouncer, and librarian. She lives on Vancouver Island with her husband, kids, and an assortment of forest creatures who think they are pets. Sara writes sexy romantic comedy and contemporary romance with a multicultural twist.

   WHERE: In-store at Munro's Books, 1108 Government Street, Victoria.
