A CONVERSATION with PNW’s incredibly prolific and highly entertaining NY Times Bestselling Authors LISA JACKSON, NANCY BUSH, AND ROZ NOONAN.
SINISTER
Kensington authors Lisa Jackson, Nancy Bush, and Rosalind Noonan unite their talents in this riveting novel of family secrets, obsession, and murder.
Twenty years ago, a fire ravaged the Dillinger family’s old homestead, killing Judd Dillinger and crippling his girlfriend. Most people blamed a serial arsonist who’d been seen around town. But strange things are happening in Prairie Creek, Wyoming, again.
Ira Dillinger, the family’s wealthy patriarch, has summoned his children home for his upcoming wedding. Eldest son, Colton, and his siblings don’t approve of their father’s gold-digging bride-to-be. But someone is setting fires, just like in the past…and this time there will be no survivors.
THEIR NEWEST INDIVIDUAL TITLES:
IT HAPPENED ON THE LAKE by Lisa Jackson.
Twenty years after tragedy and scandal shattered her life, Harper Reed Prescott returns to her family’s isolated house on Lake Twilight — a place haunted by whispers of death and disappearance. She’s ready to leave the past behind, but someone is watching… and the lake isn’t done with her yet.
THAT MISSING PIECE IS KILLING ME (An Alice Pepper Lonely Hearts and Puzzle Club Mystery Book) by Roz Noonan.
Librarian Alice Pepper always had a natural talent for figuring out people and puzzles in the small Oregon town of West Hazel. But as a mystery permeates the quiet PNW community, murder is a challenge she’s not prepared to solve . . .
THE PSYCHIC by Nancy Bush.
In a chilling, intensely eerie novel of suspense from the New York Times bestselling author of The Camp and The Babysitter, a woman haunted by unreliable psychic visions must decide how far to trust herself when it comes to stopping a killer. Because this new vision is different. This one won’t be ignored.

Aging With Grace in Cape Meares
At CACC gatherings, we highlight concerns around aging in place in our small communities, and facilitate social connections that enrich our lives.
Our villages in the Nehalem Bay Area comprise a naturally occurring retirement community — a place where more than half the residents are of retirement age. Yet there are not sufficient services to support aging in place; we rely on neighbors helping neighbors.
Many people express a desire to live out their lives here, in this place they love. But many eventually must move away to live closer to caregivers and support services.
The tiny village of Cape Meares, tucked along the northern foot of the towering Cape Meares, is home to only 90 full-time residents. Median age in the village is 75 years.
Join us November 10, 2 to 4PM, to learn how residents of this isolated village are actively nurturing a community of support and awareness to prepare residents for aging in place and end of life.
We welcome Beverly Stein, Kathy Burke and Narayan Lincoln from the Aging With Grace program of the Cape Meares Community Association to the Pine Grove in Manzanita for this opportunity to learn from this proactive group, exchange ideas, share resources and envision collaboration between our small North Coast communities. Come join for conversation and refreshments after the presentation.
A $5 contribution supports the Pine Grove Community house.
The Agent Orange catastrophe did not end with the Vietnam War. Today, the world over, a primary chemical of the notorious defoliant controls weeds in farming, forestry, parks, along railbeds and roadways, and even in children’s playgrounds. The pesticide can wreak havoc on the human genome, causing deformities and deadly cancers.
This investigative documentary interweaves personal with political struggles as it follows two heroic women who are leading a worldwide movement to hold manufacturers of these pesticides accountable.
After the film, people will have opportunities to learn more about the pesticide-related challenges Oregonians continue to face, especially in the fight to keep surface drinking water safe. Carol Van Strum and Susan Swift, two of the activists starring in the film, will be on hand to answer questions after the movie.

The Gathering, a celebration of Native American Heritage Month, returns to Cannon Beach for a weekend of art, film, conversation and more. In its third year, the event features a mix of indigenous voices, including filmmaker Katsitsionni Fox (Akwesasne Mohawk Nation), storyteller Karen Kitchen (Osage Nation), scholar Brad Mix (Red River Métis), poet Cliff Taylor (Ponca) and more.
All Gathering events are offered free of charge. Donations are encouraged.
At 7PM on Saturday, November 15th, award winning director Katsitsionni Fox will premiere her upcoming documentary, “Kanenon:we – Original Seeds,” at the Coaster Theatre. The short film follows women responsible for caretaking of traditional seeds whose existence is threatened by centuries of colonial practices. The film explores food security, environmental disconnection, climate change, land theft and more. Following the screening, Fox will be joined by Cliff Taylor for a Q&A.
Earlier on Saturday, the Cannon Beach Library hosts a family-friendly storytelling event with educator Karen Kitchen at 1PM. With traditional stories and song, Kitchen engages children and learners of all ages. Children will also be able to experiment with and make their own indigenous instruments.
On Sunday. November 16th, the Cannon Beach History Center & Museum welcomes Brad Mix for a presentation entitled “Reclaiming the Mixed Blood Story” at 11AM. This conversation will explore mixed-blood identity, not only within the Métis Nation but across Indigenous and mixed-heritage communities today.
“This discussion isn’t just about Métis history,” says Zoe Swain, Cultural Outreach Coordinator at the Cannon Beach History Center & Museum and Gathering co-organizer. “It’s also about mixed ancestry more broadly. The question of ‘how Indigenous are you?’ can be deeply painful for many people of mixed heritage. What’s so inspiring about the Métis Nation is how they celebrate being both European and Indigenous, embracing that dual identity as strength, not conflict.”
The Gathering is produced by Cannon Beach community nonprofits, including: The Tolovana Arts Colony, Cannon Beach History Center & Museum, The Coaster Theatre Playhouse and the Cannon Beach Library. Sponsored by Escape Lodging.
