Christina Diaz Gonzales, the award-winning author of several books including “The Red Umbrella,” “A Thunderous Whisper,” “Moving Target,” “Return Fire,” and “Stormspeaker,” will discuss her new book “Concealed” on “Vroman’s Live” at 6 p.m. Friday on Crowdcast.

She will be in conversation with Edgar Award-winning author James Ponti.

In “Concealed,” Katrina – at one time Ivette, and later Joanna – doesn’t know any of the details about her past, but she does know that she and her parents are part of the Witness Protection Program. Whenever her parents say they have to move on and start over, she takes on a new identity, a new name, a new hair color, a new story – until their location leaks and her parents disappear.

Forced to embark on a dangerous rescue mission, Katrina and her new friend Parker set out to save her parents – and find out the truth about her secret past and the people that want her family dead. But every new discovery reveals that Katrina’s entire life has been built around secrets covered up with lies, and that her parents were actually the ones keeping the biggest secret of all.

Katrina must now decide if learning the whole truth is worth the price of losing everything she has ever believed about herself and her family.

Vroman’s Live is a virtual event and will take place on Crowdcast. All interested are advised to register for free ahead of time to save a spot and get an email reminder.
