Read and Go Trip - It Dies With You

Active Adult Program

If you like mystery books, this trip is for you!

Join Scott Blackburn, author of It Dies With You, as he takes us on a journey to the locations throughout the book. The story takes place in Flint Creek, NC, which is a fictional location, but the places are based on locations in Greensboro and Kernersville, NC.

After a post-fight brawl jeopardizes his boxing career, Hudson Miller takes a job as a bar bouncer, only to be hit with worse news: his estranged father has been murdered. Upon returning to settle the estate and discovering he’s inheriting his father’s salvage yard. But Miller’s Pull-a-Part hides more than scrap metal. The property was a front for an illegal gun-running operation, and a gruesome discovery there pulls Hudson into a deadly mystery.

  • Visit and discover how these locations played a part in the book - AL Lows Boxing Club, Scuppernong Books, Prissy Polly's BBQ.
  • Lunch on your own at Captain Tom's Seafood
