PLEASE NOTE: this is a ticketed event, with each ticket including one copy of Alice Isn’t Dead. One ticket per person—no exceptions. Tickets must be purchased in advance—each ticket costs the price of 1 book + tax.

This isnt a story, its a road trip. So starts Alice Isn’t Dead.

 

Keisha Taylor lived a quiet life with her wife, Alice, until the day that Alice disappeared. After months of searching, presuming she was dead, Keisha held a funeral, mourned, and gradually tried to get on with her life. But that was before Keisha started to see her wife, again and again, in the background of news reports from all over America. Alice isnt dead, and she is showing up at every major tragedy and accident in the country.

 

Following a line of clues, Keisha takes a job as a long-haul truck driver, and begins searching for Alice. In her search for her missing wife, she will stumble on a forgotten American history of secret deals and buried crimes, an inhuman serial killer who has picked her as his next target, and an otherworldly conflict being waged in the quiet corners of our nations highway system — uncovering a conspiracy that goes way beyond one missing woman.

 

Alice Isn’t Dead expands the story told in the hit podcast of the same name, which has had over 6 million downloads in its first 10-episode season, and is one of the most downloaded fiction podcasts of all time. Its also being made into a TV series — Mr. Robot executive producer Kyle Bradstreet has been tapped to write and executive produce a TV adaptation of Alice Isnt Dead, along with Fink. The series is in development at USA Network and Universal Cable Productions.

 

Joseph Fink is the co-author of the New York Times bestselling novels It Devours! and Welcome to Night Vale. He created the Welcome to Night Vale and Alice Isnt Dead podcasts.  In 2016, Fink and Cranor launched the podcast network Night Vale Presents which features fiction and non-fiction podcasts. He lives with his wife in New York. For more on Welcome to Night Vale, visit: welcometonightvale.com.
