Join thriller author Layne Fargo in-person at Eisenhower for a conversation about ambition, obsession, and the dark side of desire in fiction and psychological suspense.

Layne Fargo is the acclaimed author of The Favorites, Temper, They Never Learn, and The Widows series. Her novels explore fierce, morally complex women who refuse to be underestimated. Praised for their razor-sharp prose and chilling plots, Fargo’s books blend psychological thrills with feminist edge, earning her a devoted readership and critical acclaim.

A co-creator of the podcast Unlikeable Female Characters, Fargo is a fearless voice in modern crime fiction, celebrating characters who break the rules—and sometimes get away with it.

Fargo will discuss her writing process, her fascination with power and revenge, and why unlikable women make for the most compelling protagonists. Books will be available to purchase.
