Join us for an engaging author talk with Claire Booth, the journalist-turned-novelist behind the acclaimed Sheriff Hank Worth mysteries set in Branson, Missouri. Expect a short reading, insights into police-procedural writing, and a lively Q&A.

Booth spent more than a decade as a daily newspaper reporter covering complex crime stories before moving into true crime and, later, fiction. She’s the author of the Hank Worth series— The Branson Beauty, Another Man’s Ground, A Deadly Turn, Fatal Divisions, Dangerous Consequences, Home Fires (book 6), and the newest, Throwing Shadows (book 7).

Newest novel: Throwing Shadows (Book 7, Severn House, Aug 5, 2025) — Hank Worth investigates multiple bodies discovered near the ominous “Murder Rocks,” tying past and present crimes together.

We’ll explore Booth’s shift from reporting to crime fiction, how real cases inform her plots, and what’s next for Sheriff Hank Worth. (She’s already at work on future installments.)

The Fair Oaks Library is a public library located in Fair Oaks, California, that serves as a community hub for learning, culture, and engagement. While specific details (such as operating hours or programming schedules) may change over time, here are some key points about the library:

Community Focus

  • Public Resource: As part of the local public library system (often integrated with the Sacramento County Public Library system), the Fair Oaks Library provides residents with access to a broad range of materials including books, magazines, DVDs, and digital resources.
  • Programs and Events: The library frequently hosts events and programs for all age groups. These can include story times for children, book clubs, educational workshops, and community meetings. Such events are designed to foster literacy, lifelong learning, and community interaction.
  • Digital and In-Person Services: In addition to a physical collection, the library offers digital resources such as e-books, audiobooks, and online databases. Public computers and free Wi-Fi are typically available to assist with research, job applications, or other internet needs.

Environment

  • Welcoming Space: The library is known for its inviting atmosphere. It often includes dedicated areas for children, teens, and adults, making it a versatile space for families, students, and seniors.
  • Community Hub: Beyond lending materials, the Fair Oaks Library serves as a meeting place for community groups and local events, contributing to the social and educational fabric of the area.

Additional Information

  • Local Integration: Being part of the county’s library system means that residents often have access not only to the materials available at the Fair Oaks branch but also to a much larger interlibrary network. This allows for broader resource sharing and additional services.
  • Staying Updated: For the most current information on operating hours, specific programs, or any temporary changes (such as holiday closures or special events), it’s a good idea to check the library’s official website or contact them directly. Local government or the Sacramento County Public Library system’s site will typically have the latest updates.
