His latest novel relates the journey of a young man following his sense of duty in the wake of 9/11, training as a helicopter pilot while balancing family and friends, and the pull of his hometown of Empire. Mr. Wemlinger will be available for a “meet & greet” with light refreshments, and will then share a brief reading from his book. Copies of this book will be available for sale.
