Library to Host Sold-Out Event with Bestselling Author

The Hamilton East Public Library will welcome debut author Tiffany Crum for a special evening author talk on Saturday, April 18 at 6 pm. The free, ticketed event reached full capacity within 48 hours of opening registration, reflecting strong community excitement for Crum’s newly released novel, This Story Might Save Your Life.

The program will take place offsite at the theatre inside the Fishers Art Center at City Hall and will feature a moderated conversation with Crum, followed by an audience Q&A and book signing.

Crum’s debut novel has quickly gained national attention, earning recognition as a New York Times bestselling release and a BBC Radio 2 Book Club selection. This Story Might Save Your Life follows a beloved podcast duo whose lives take a shocking turn when a disappearance transforms their story into a real-life mystery.

“We’re thrilled to bring an author of this caliber to our community,” said Allison Kartman, Systemwide Program Coordinator. “The overwhelming response to this event speaks to the excitement readers have for compelling new voices and the power of libraries to connect people with stories and the authors behind them.” 

The evening will begin with check-in at 6pm, followed by the program at 6:30pm. Attendees will have the opportunity to purchase copies of the book onsite from Chapter Book Lounge prior to the event.

Originally from a dairy farm near a maximum-security prison, Crum went on to work in the film industry before earning her MFA in creative writing. She now lives in Atlanta with her family. This Story Might Save Your Life, which published on March 10, 2026, has already sold in fifteen languages and is currently under option for television.

While registration for this event is full, community members are encouraged to follow HEPL for future author events and literary programming.
