New York Times best-selling author, Harlan Coben takes part in a Winning Authors event on April 10th
Mohegan Sun’s Winning Authors welcomes best-selling author Harlan Coben. The world-renowned author will host a live discussion on Saturday, April 10th in The Cabaret Theatre at 2:00pm followed by a book signing in The Shops at Mohegan Sun at 3:00pm for his latest thriller Caught. Coben’s appearance in Mohegan Sun’s Winning Authors places him in a class of authors such as Sue Grafton, Nora Roberts, Robin Cook, Lee Child and John Saul.
Harlan Coben’s critically-acclaimed novels have earned him international success. As the first author ever to win the Edgar Award, Shamus Award and Anthony Award, Coben continues to rake in accolades from reviewers and fans worldwide. His previous seven novels have appeared on the top of all major best-seller lists including the New York Times, Wall Street Journal and Publishers Weekly. Coben’s latest novel, Caught, tells the story of a missing girl, a community stunned by her loss, the predator who may have taken her and the reporter who suddenly realizes she can’t trust her own instincts about the case, or the motives of the people around her.
Winning Authors is an experience offering an intimate and unique environment for book lovers. All events are free and open to the public of all ages. Books by featured authors will be available at the Spin Street store in The Shops at Mohegan Sun for purchase.

Gabriel Iglesias has been described as unbelievably funny, electrifying and a gifted performer who has the ability to consistently deliver a quality comedy experience in every venue he performs in. His high-octane show is a hilarious mixture of storytelling, parodies, characters and sound effects that bring all his personal issues to life. Known as the “fluffy” comic in a Hawaiian shirt, the 33-year old funny man often riffs about his girthy middle – whether it’s talking about how little dancing it takes for him to work up a sweat at the night club, or how hearing his girlfriend coo the words “chocolate cake” over the telephone works for him like phone sex, he evokes laughter.
Mohegan Sun Arena is ranked the 4th best venue by Billboard Magazine and was the 2008 recipient of a Country Music Award for “Casino of The Year.” For more information on concerts and other great events at Mohegan Sun, visit mohegansun.com.
