Venue 13

Robert Laliberte has a dream—a dream to convert a run-down building into a premier space for bring-your-own-venue productions in his city’s Summer Theatre Festival, a.k.a. Skeeter Fest. But achieving his dream isn’t easy. Amid mounting debt and numerous technical problems, Robert is unaware that his beloved Venue 13 is also haunted. And if the belligerent ghost has anything to say about it, nobody’s shows will go on.

“The story he tells is riveting, and the novel really does become unputdownable. The reader will feel like part of the enraptured audience, hanging on every word…”

— Winnipeg Free Press

“Loved this! … One of those novels I didn’t want to put down, and am sad to have come to the end.”

— Anita Daher, author of You Don’t Have to Die in the End

“A charming novel of theatrical aspirations and ghostly shenanigans.”

— Corey Redekop, author of Husk
