Tylor McNeil art featured on award winning book

Local author and great friend of the gallery, Marci Lin Melvin has been awarded the Reader Views Grand Prize Gold Award in Fiction.  "Wednesday Night Lights" is an historical thriller set right here in Nova Scotia. Artist Tylor McNeil created the striking cover artwork.

"Wednesday Night Whites is a historical thriller set in the seemingly idyllic town of Chester, Nova Scotia, where Azalea “Zale” Augustine, a driven local attorney, is pulled into a widening investigation after a string of women disappear and the official response feels disturbingly muted. What first looks like a series of isolated tragedies begins to reveal a protected, decades-long pattern tied to an elite social circle of powerful men who use wealth, reputation, and intimidation to keep the community compliant and the truth buried." -ein presswire

Marci is a longtime fan of Tylor MacNeil's art and has been a supporter for many years. Tylor McNeil was excited to paint specifically for the novel's cover and he was presented an advance copy by Marci herself at the gallery last fall.  It is a wonderful collaboration by two talented Canadian artists.
