(VIDEO) Fall River Serves as the Fictional City in Local Author’s First Novel

Fall River resident T.J. Silva has written his first novel…and he’s using a fictional version of Fall River as its backdrop.

Silva says his love of writing was developed at a young age, but taking the steps to become a published author was not easy.

Silva’s book is entitled The Moonlight Club: King’s Chronicles and includes a photo of the Braga Bridge on the cover, although the city represented in the book is not an accurate depiction of Fall River.

The story of The Moonlight Club follows a trio of individuals facing life in a mid-sized, blue-collar industrial city.  Silva says he has enough material to carry the story beyond the first novel.

Sliva is self-publishing The Moonlight Club and, for now, it’s only available on Amazon in both paperback and Kindle editions.
