On Saturday, June 27th at 1pm, the Friends of the Winona Public Library will host a special event featuring the authors of Dear Jacob, Patty Wetterling and Joy Baker.

This is a free event, but you must RSVP below to obtain a ticket as seating is limited.

On October 22, 1989, in the small town of St. Joseph, Minnesota, eleven-year-old Jacob Wetterling was kidnapped at gunpoint. Twenty-seven years later, on September 3, 2016, Danny Heinrich led authorities to the boy’s remains. What lies between is the riveting story of the search for Jacob Wetterling, told by his mother, Patty. In 2013, the Wetterlings were joined on their quest for answers by two unlikely allies-a local blogger and a plumber. Joy Baker convinced Jared Scheierl to come forward and share his story about being kidnapped from a nearby town and sexually assaulted the same year as Jacob. Together, these two uncovered a string of similar assaults that had never been fully investigated. The combined efforts of this foursome led to the breakthrough that solved the case.

Paperback & Pieces will be selling copies of the book at the event.
