We’re so excited to welcome author Lynden Mann to the inaugural A Novel Event in Fenton on Saturday, October 5 at the Fenton Community & Cultural Center! Lynden Mann writes thrillers.

About Lynden Mann
Kirk Rundell (aka Lynden Mann) is a new author from Linden, Michigan (hence his pen name). After a long period of publishing paralysis, he finally released his debut novel, Barry’s Kiss. He is currently working on another fast pace thriller—hoping to be released in early 2025.

“Barry’s Kiss” summary
Roz is running from an abusive relationship. With little money and no direction, she finds refuge in a small seaside town...but not for long. A terrible accident shatters her world. Her pain is inescapable until a stranger touches her—a man in the shadows. A doctor? A demon? Maybe an angel? She hopes so. Battered and beaten, she’s defenseless against something evil lurking in the hospital.
