Meet award-winning Tallahassee author George Encizo on Saturday July 14th from noon to 2pm and discover his latest mystery, Broken Trust.

A little bit about Broken Trust, a mystery with a local setting:
For reasons known only to him, Francis Teague hadn’t told anyone about his adolescent years during the 1940s in Monticello, Florida. But that all changed when his granddaughter, Erica Bass, a Leon County paramedic decided she wanted to know about them. Her mother initially discouraged her as whenever the subject came up by her or Erica’s grandmother, he clammed up and avoided the subject altogether. Determined to learn his story, she visited her grandfather on his eighty-sixth birthday in an attempt to get him to agree to talk to her and hopefully write a book about his life as a teenager. Surprisingly, he agreed, and the project began. Her grandfather not only talked about his adolescent years but revealed secrets he’d never told anyone, not his parents, Erica’s grandmother, nor Erica’s mother. Some were emotionally charged, some were highly personal, and some were mysterious and suspenseful. But Erica was overwhelmed when she discovered a shocking family secret.

George Encizo was born in New York and has lived in Florida since 1972. He is married to his wife of decades and has two children. A retired banker, he took up watercolor painting after he retired and became an accomplished watercolorist. He then turned to writing memoirs about his life and his family and decided to write his first mystery novel. The Farber Legacy won a Gold Medal in the 2015 Florida Authors and Publishers Association President Book Awards. When not writing, he enjoys a cup of coffee on the back porch with his wife surveying their gardens. For more about Encizo and his books, visit www.georgeencizo.com.
