Kate Shaw has lived in Baines Creek for ten years, teaching at a one-room schoolhouse on the brink of closure. A skeptic by heart, she rejects superstition and the belief in Appalachian folklore, much to the chagrin of Birdie Rocas, a lively and reclusive witch with a trove of secrets. Yet when Birdie dies and leaves Kate her Book of Truths and a trunk of illuminated manuscripts and journals, Kate is thrown into a mystery, overwhelmed by a collection that spans centuries back to Scotland.Enter Lydia Brown, a psychic with a curious birthmark whose visions stopped the day her parents died. Grief-stricken, without her gift, and in need of spiritual guidance, she travels to Appalachia in search of Birdie. From there, the two women’s stories intertwine, as they investigate the questions surrounding Birdie’s death and legacy, through secret rooms, underground tunnels, and back country graveyards.LEAH WEISS is a Southern writer born in North Carolina and raised in the foothills of Virginia. Her debut novel If the Creek Don’t Rise was released in August of 2017. Her short stories have been published in The Simple Life magazine, Every Day Fiction and Deep South Magazine. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/wake-forest/author-event-leah-weiss/100001846477236119 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Wake Forest - **state**: NC - **country**: United States - **location**: Page 158 Books - **lat**: 35.97417410000001 - **long**: -78.50870379999999 - **full address**: Page 158 Books, 415 Brooks Street, Wake Forest, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Author Event: Leah Weiss - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/bebc9db359ada6b55c595c8cd569393e2330b8940728a759843eb85cdfc34e91-rimg-w1200-h675-dc4a4f2f-gmir.jpg?v=1761363686 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Author Event: Leah Weiss being held? - **A:** Author Event: Leah Weiss takes place on Tue, 24 Mar, 2026 at 06:00 pm to Tue, 24 Mar, 2026 at 07:00 pm at Page 158 Books, 415 Brooks Street, Wake Forest, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Author Event: Leah Weiss? - **A:** Author Event: Leah Weiss is organized by Page 158 Books. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
