Ken McLemore talked about his recently released novel “Lagniappe“. The book is part of a series McLemore has written centered around a mythical Ouachita County town called “Destiny”. The story concerns ex-military sniper Brock Beckett and his newly found daughter. We won’t go any farther than that, but we think you will enjoy the book. McLemore will be signing and selling his books June 22nd from 10am until 11am at the Hempstead County Library at 500 South Elm. The public is invited to come and visit with McLemore at the library.
