Private Eye and Author Norma Tillman to join Grave Distractions at SFOB

Nashville based private investigator and author Norma Tillman will be appearing at the Grave Distractions Publications booth at this year's Southern Festival of Books.  Norma’s private investigations practice has specialized in finding and reuniting families and friends as well as, locating missing heirs.  During her 20 year career as a private eye, Norma has found over 1,000 missing persons.  She also maintains the "Locate Anyone Anywhere" website dedicated to bringing home missing people. Over the years, Norma has made select speaking and television appearances sharing her experiences in finding missing persons.  Oprah, Nancy Grace and the cast of The View have all made use of Norma's knack for finding missing persons as platforms for reunion based shows.

Norma will appear at this year's Southern Festival of Books to discuss her latest book, The Adoption Searcher's Handbook.  In this book, Norma gives tips on how to conduct one of the most difficult and emotional of all searches. Finding one's birth parents can be a challenging task and Norma has put her considerable insight into The Adoption Searcher's Handbook.

We welcome you to stop by the Grave Distractions Publications booth at the Southern Festival of Books to speak with Norma about her work and her book.  Norma will be signing copies of The Adoption Searcher's Handbook at the Grave Distractions booth on Saturday, October 9th: 3:00pm to 4:00pm and on Sunday, October 10th: 2:00pm to 3:00pm.

Haunted Nashville at the Southern Festival of Books

Grave Distractions Publications will be representing the owners of Nashville Ghost Tours Kim and Frankie Harris' book Haunted Nashville at this year's Southern Festival of Books.   

Haunted Nashville unravels the mysteries surrounding some of Music City's most recognizable landmarks.  Who has been ringing the bells at St. Mary's Catholic Church in the dead of night?  Is Andrew Jackson's spirit still riding his ghostly stallion through his plantation home, the Hermitage?  Why have there been reports of ghostly fighting at the State Capitol?  Learn of the terror in room 711 at the Union Station Hotel and in Civil War morgues and hospitals that still bear phantom forms of Confederate soldiers.  Decide for yourself if Hank William's apparition is still performing at the Ryman Auditorium.  Nashville's tragic love stories and grisly murders are as fascinating as the haunted tales themselves!
