Join local author Alanna Rusnak on Tuesday, April 29, as she discusses her books and performs her work in front of the Owen Sound & North Grey Union Public Library fireplace.

Award-winning publisher and award-nominated author Alanna Rusnak announces the release of her highly anticipated novel When the Trees All Burned, the first book in a gripping new trilogy, launching on April 1, 2025 through Chicken House Press. The paperback will be available wherever books are sold, with the ebook exclusively available on Kindle for the first ninety days.

The April Fool’s Day release date is no coincidence but rather a calculated choice that underscores the novel’s central themes. In When the Trees All Burned, humanity dismisses the warnings of eccentric billionaire Rajiv Montgomery Noah as entertainment, folly, or delusion—only to discover too late that he was telling the truth all along. The April 1st release brilliantly reinforces this narrative of ignored prophecies and misplaced mockery, asking readers to consider: Who is the real fool—the one who warns of danger, or the one who laughs at the warning?
