Enid Angela Ziock’s thrilling crime novel unveils a dark side of Kansas City at two major book events

TORONTO, CANADA, September 20, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Novelist Enid Angela Ziock’s latest book, “The Other World”, will be prominently featured at two prestigious literary events this fall: The Word on the Street Toronto Books and Magazine Festival and the Frankfurt Book Fair 2024. This compelling novel delves into the underworld of Missouri River casinos, uncovering a chilling narrative of crime and corruption.

“The Other World” takes readers deep into the seedy underbelly of Kansas City, where the glittering facade of casino life conceals a darker reality. The story traces the rise and fall of the notorious Pendergast family and their secretive gambling empire. Amidst the chaos, a serial rapist terrorizes the community, prompting a determined black police officer to uncover a web of deceit and corruption while racing against time to bring justice to the city.

Ziock’s novel not only explores the gripping world of organized crime but also weaves in local history, offering readers a window into the heart of America’s river cities. Through this narrative, Ziock reflects on the power of community and the importance of empathy and connection.

Enid Angela Ziock, an accomplished author with a background in creative writing from Bryn Mawr College and the University of Iowa, draws on her experiences and inspirations from the vibrant black community of East Kansas City. Ziock hopes her story will resonate with readers, encouraging kindness and a sense of community.

“The Other World” will be featured at The Word on the Street Toronto Books and Magazine Festival 2024, a celebration of Canadian literature and storytelling.
