Find him at tomandes.com.  “For all its readability as a crime novel, Wait There Till You Hear from Me is as well a fine portrait of a man finding the shape of his life in the shape of the great city around him – indefinable, ever-changing, ancient New Orleans.” - James Sallis, author of Drive and the Lew Griffin novels “Tom Andes’ New Orleans is an uneasy mix of old money and creeping gentrification, high society and low lifes. Wait There Till You Hear From Me is a gritty modern noir as sharp and satisfying as a Sazerac.” - Stewart O’Nan, author of West of Sunset and City of Secrets

In the meantime, we are working on an exciting list of virtual events for both adults and children and we look forward to exploring this new format with you.Sales equate success, and as with in-store events, booksales made from an independent bookstore benefit the author, publisher, and lead to future event bookings. Please help us keep the Bay Area the wonderful literary hub that it is by supporting your local Books Inc."
