Writers Dr. Robert Gussin and his wife, Dr. Patricia Gussin, will be at the Duquesne University Barnes & Noble Bookstore for book signings this week.

The Gussins will be at the bookstore on Friday, Nov. 5, from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

Robert, a distinguished Duquesne alumnus and a member of the University’s Board of Directors, has written What’s Next…For You? The Gussin Guide to Big Decisions, Big Changes, and Big Fun, a strategic marketing guide.

Patricia will be signing copies of her novel And Then There Was One. Nominated for the Thriller Award for Best First Novel, it tells the high-tension story about a parent’s worst nightmare—a kidnapping—becoming reality.

The Gussins endowed the Robert and Patricia Gussin Spiritan Division of Academic Programs and are the benefactors of an endowed scholarship for minority students.
