True Crime Author Gregg Olsen and Survivor Shasta Groene to Speak at Upcoming Library Events
CLARKSTON, WA – New York Times bestselling author Gregg Olsen and survivor Shasta Groene will appear at two local library events on Saturday, August 9, to share Groene’s harrowing story and discuss Olsen’s new book Out of the Woods: A Girl, a Killer, and a Lifelong Struggle to Find the Way Home.
The first event will take place at 12:00 p.m. at the Moscow Public Library in Idaho, followed by a 6:00 p.m. appearance at the Asotin County Library in Clarkston, Washington. Both events are free and open to the public, with books available for purchase and signing.
Out of the Woods recounts the 2005 Groene family murders in rural Idaho and the abduction of Shasta and her brother Dylan. Nearly two decades later, Groene is telling her story on her own terms, after years of silence and external interpretation from media, therapists, and others.
Attendees will hear directly from Groene and Olsen about her survival, the writing process, and the importance of truth in storytelling.
