HERMISTON - A reading, book signing and reception for Keith Kirkwood, author of the recent book, "The Cuban Connection," will be held at 7 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 17, in the Lanham Room, located in the lower level of the public library.
Autographed copies of the book will be available for purchase after the presentation. The reception is open to the public.
Kirkwood's book is the story of a young Drug Enforcement Agency agent who found Cuba was behind the drug trade in the United States and set out to stop it.
The book, which is both an adventure and love story, is available in book stores Feb. 11.
Born and raised in Eastern Oregon, Kirkwood joined the Air Force after graduating from high school and served during the Korean War.
After returning home he worked in a number of criminal justice capacities serving as a police officer, judge and investigator working with both the FBI and DEA.
