Warren library hosts author for program
Author Wendy Koile will speak on "Love, Lies, and Murder in Northern Ohio" at 6 p.m. May 7 at the Warren-Trumbull County Public Library, 444 Mahoning Ave. NW, Warren.
There can be a thin line between love and hate, and when intense passion threatens that border, blood may flow. Northern Ohio has had its share of people who felt that line snap. Koile examines these relationships once bound by love, unraveled by lies and cut off by murder.
It is an America250 event, and admission is free.
