The St. Louis County Library Foundation and Left Bank Books Present True Crime Historian Abbott Kahler

 
Author of “Eden Undone: A True Story of Sex, Murder, and Utopia at the Dawn of World War II”
 

Bestselling true crime writer Abbott Kahler weaves a chilling, stranger-than-fiction tale worthy of Agatha Christie about European exiles hoping to create a utopian paradise in the Galápagos Islands, but descending into outrageous chaos and ultimately murder.  With a mystery as alluring and curious as the Galápagos itself, “Eden Undone” explores the universal and timeless desire to seek utopia—and lays bare the human fallibility that, inevitably, renders such a quest doomed.

Doors open at 6:00 p.m.
