Former Charlotte County resident and New York Times bestselling author Kathleen Grissom kicked off the release of her third and highly anticipated novel Crow Mary on June 6 at Givens Books in Lynchburg. Published by Simon & Schuster, the historical fiction draws inspiration from the life of the legendary Crow Mary and is backed by her great-granddaughter, Crow elders, and Crow scholars. According to Grissom, the novel captures the true story of Crow Mary, an indigenous woman torn between two worlds in 19th century North America and is a tale of an epic love story that spans generations, taking place in the upper West and Canada.
