Bethany Joy Lenz appears in Toledo as part of the Authors! series to preview her forthcoming novel, The Betrayal of Cora Wexford. She will discuss why she chose to write a psychological thriller in Victorian London, share insights into her creative process, reflect on shifting from nonfiction to historical suspense, and describe how research into social history shapes her storytelling. The program includes a 45 minute talk followed by a short audience Q and A, and each admission comes with a copy of the book. Set in 1880s London, the story follows Cora Wexford, a 38 year old American expatriate who earns her living by painting portraits of the dead. Hoping to leave old secrets behind, she meets the charming Miles Vale while also accepting a commission from a suffragist to portray everyday women the system has overlooked. When a string of murders surfaces that echoes crimes associated with Jack the Ripper, Cora’s work becomes a dangerous fixation. As her sense of reality and her bond with Miles grow increasingly unsettled, she is forced to face a chilling unraveling close to home. Lenz is a New York Times bestselling writer whose memoir Dinner for Vampires was named to Time’s best of the year list. Known for her starring role in One Tree Hill, her screen work also includes Grey’s Anatomy, Dexter, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and Hope Valley: 1874, and she is active as a recording artist, composer, and fine artist.

At Marygrove Conservancy in Detroit, The Poisoner concludes a seven-city run with a story rooted close to home. This neo-noir stage thriller, sparked by the Flint water crisis, follows a reporter who returns to his hometown and uncovers a contaminated water supply, setting off ripples that are both deeply personal and politically charged. First presented in 2024 at New York’s La MaMa Experimental Theatre, the play marks the debut of Port Huron native M. M. Haney, with direction and development by two-time Obie Award recipient Lee Sunday Evans. The piece unpacks deception, the misuse of authority, and systemic negligence tied to early-2000s Midwestern water policy, asking audiences to consider a pressing question... how safe are we, really? Though fictional, the work highlights ongoing struggles in communities such as Flint, Jackson, and Newark, calling for accountability and constant vigilance in decisions that affect public health. It pays tribute to the persistence of journalists, artists, and activists who continue to elevate community voices in the pursuit of justice and change. Limited to three performances. Students and seniors with valid ID can take $5 off with the code FIVEOFF. Post-show conversations with special guests are planned, with further details to be shared.
