Last Sunday we welcomed author Annamaria Alfieri to the gardens of the Rosemary House for a book signing followed by an afternoon tea. Author of Strange Gods, a British East African murder mystery, Alfieri captures the exotic feel of this foreign country, ties in a romantic component and follows the traditional who-dunnit syle in this popular novel. 
In addition to her African series, she has two other historical mysteries set in South America, Blood Tango and City of Silver. Her first novel, City of Silver was named one of the best debut mysteries of the year by Deadly Pleasures Mystery Magazine. Annamaria is a world traveler, and draws upon her experiences and shares her love of these countries in her writings. Follow the author on Facebook.
A beautiful sunny Pennsylvania afternoon was the perfect setting for a book signing. Debbie Beamer of Mechanicsburg Mystery Books coordinates the book sale. The casual relaxed setting of the gardens offered the opportunity to purchase a book or two, chat with the author, sip some strawberry lemonade and nibble some crackers before venturing into the tea room for an African themed culinary adventure.
What a fun event. How special to get to be outdoors for it. The lemonade sounds soooo refreshing.
