Local author Rakie Keig will be speaking about her third full-length novel to be published, Home Ground, at the Henry Bloom Noble Library on Wednesday May 9th.
The story, a horror tale set in the Isle of Man in 1940, sees the main character, English-born Allan Hendricks, fleeing Germany and ending up placed in an internment camp in Kirk Michael. The decidedly dark tale unfolds to feature a distinctly unwell Romanian, zombies, late-night medical experiments in the camp’s medical facility, missing internees and a disease that reanimates the dead.
To learn more visit the Henry Bloom Noble Library at 10-12 Victoria Street Douglas on Wednesday May 9th. The evening starts at 7.30pm and is expected to finish at 9.30pm. Refreshments will be available.
Tickets are free but must be obtained in advance from the ground floor counter.
