CHINATOWN — Local author Frances McNamara will discuss "Death at Chinatown," the latest in her series of mystery novels set in historical Chicago.

The free event takes place at 2 p.m. Saturday at the Chinese-American Museum of Chicago, 238 W. 23rd St.

"Death at Chinatown" is the fifth book in McNamara's "Emily Cabot Mysteries" series. Set in Chicago's original Chinatown in 1896, the book details the mysterious death of a local herbalist, which "leads to involvement in local political conflicts as well as conflict between Western and Eastern medicine."
