Meet the author

Denise Sumotzy, author of "Hidden Identity," will be at the Wallette branch of Shreve Memorial Library, 363 Hearne Ave., at 10 a.m. Monday, Feb. 25.
Sumotzy brings to life a nail-biting story of lies and deceit in this tale about a solitary black man who conceals his identity to pave the way for freedom and justice.
Depicted in and around the Civil War era, the story takes you back to the lives of African-Americans of years long ago. Books are available for $8.99.
