Devil Makes Three, the new novel by Ben Fountain, addresses blood politics, the machinations of power, and a country in the midst of upheaval. When a violent coup d’état in Haiti leads to the fall of President Jean-Bertrand Aristide, an American expat desperate for money teams up with his best friend, the only son of a socially prominent Haitian family, to explore the legendary shipwrecks off the coast of Haiti rumored to contain priceless treasures. This mission kicks off a cascade of ill-fated incidents, including the discovery of an arms-trafficking ring masquerading as a U.S. government humanitarian aid office.

Fountain will be in conversation with Rosalyn Story a musician, freelance journalist, and the author of several books, including And So I Sing: African American Divas of Opera and Concert.
