Description:

Join Author Dave Tevelin as he discusses his book Death at the Howard.

April 4, 1968. Dr. Martin Luther King is dead and so is Brenda Queen, shot on stage at the Howard Theatre, Washington’s soul music showcase, as rioters rage through the capital. Was it a tragic accident, a calculated crime, or something else? 

That’s what Jake Katz, a rookie cop on the Metropolitan Police Department, has to figure out in Death At The Howard, a novel about a web of events that will change him, his city, and his country forever. Through it all, Katz learns who he is and who he aspires to be, at an unexpected cost to both him and his family. The echoes of that time still reverberate through the country today, not just for those of us who lived through it, but for all Americans.

Dave Tevelin was an attorney for the U.S. Department of Justice and the first Executive Director of the State Justice Institute. He lives inArlington, Virginia with his wife Sandy.
