Carla Harvey will be releasing her upcoming novel, Death and Other Dances on August 25th in select bookstores as well as Amazon, Amazon Europe, and Kindle. This semi-autobiographical work tells the story of Autumn Franklin – an awkward, biracial Detroit native – that is disconnected from her peers at an early age because of her background.
