Welcome

Welcome to the website for the New York/Tri-State chapter of Sisters in Crime. Our chapter is lively and vibrant - as befits our central meeting place of New York City - and we have many members, with a wide variety of mystery sub-genres represented. We cast a wide net, with members hailing from the boroughs of New York as well as the wider tri-state area of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. Below you'll find information about our next event, with additional future gatherings on our Events page; whether you're a fellow Sister visiting from another chapter or a local mystery writer looking for fellow "plotters", we hope you'll join us!
