Author Event with Kent Davis
Ruby Teach is a thief. Well, a thief-in-training. And a pirate’s daughter. A smuggler. A picklock. In a world ruled by alchemists—who mix magic and science—Ruby has always relied on nothing more mysterious than her skill and her sneakiness. Swindling and stealing are straightforward.
At least, they are until she bungles the robbery of a young aristocratic lord. Now, Ruby’s father has been captured, and she must flee deep into the heart of a city filled with characters both honorable and nefarious. The Royal Navy and the leaders of a notorious secret society are hot on her heels.
Because Ruby has a secret. One even she doesn’t know.
The world is filled with those who would help her, and those who would use her to their own dark ends. Can Ruby trust anyone? Can she even trust herself?
Kent Davis has spent most of his life making stories. He is an author, game designer, and actor. A Riddle in Ruby is his first novel. He and his game design partner, Chris Organ, are the two geeks behind the Ennie Award-nominated Epic RPG tabletop gaming system. He was a Co-Artistic Director of the Equinox Theater in Bozeman from 2003-2009. Theater, film, and television credits as a short, bald man include an array of concerned friends, overbearing flunkies, and odd-yet-amusing next door neighbors. A faculty fellow in the Honors College at Montana State University, he holds a B.A. in English from U. Penn and an M.F.A. in Acting from UC, San Diego. He lives with his wife and a clever dog-ninja named Bobo in Bozeman, Montana.
