SUMMARY:Mystery Book Discussion - Murder of a Lady by Anthony Wynne
DESCRIPTION:A “locked room” mystery – “Duchlan Castle is a gloomy\, forbidding place in the Scottish Highlands. Late one night the body of Mary Gregor\, sister of the laird of Duchlan\, is found in the castle. She has been stabbed to death in her bedroom–but the room is locked from within and the windows are barred. The only tiny clue to the culprit is a silver fish’s scale\, left on the floor next to Mary’s body. Inspector Dundas is dispatched to Duchlan to investigate the case. The Gregor family and their servants are quick–perhaps too quick–to explain that Mary was a kind and charitable woman. Dundas uncovers a more complex truth\, and the cruel character of the dead woman continues to pervade the house after her death. Soon further deaths\, equally impossible\, occur\, and the atmosphere grows ever darker. Superstitious locals believe that fish creatures from the nearby waters are responsible; but luckily for Inspector Dundas\, the gifted amateur sleuth Eustace Hailey is on the scene\, and unravels a more logical solution to this most fiendish of plots.”– Provided by publisher. \nJoin us on the first Thursday of the month for a lively discussion of this month’s title and other of life’s mysteries. Copies of the book are usually available at the circulation desk or can be reserved online or by asking at the desk. This discussion also features pizza while it lasts. Free and open to all

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Book Discussion - 'News of the World' by Paulette Jiles
DESCRIPTION:“In the aftermath of the Civil War\, an aging itinerant news reader agrees to transport a young captive of the Kiowa back to her people in this exquisitely rendered\, morally complex\, multilayered novel of historical fiction from the author of Enemy Women that explores the boundaries of family\, responsibility\, honor\, and trust.In the wake of the Civil War\, Captain Jefferson Kyle Kidd travels through northern Texas\, giving live readings from newspapers to paying audiences hungry for news of the world. An elderly widower who has lived through three wars and fought in two of them\, the captain enjoys his rootless\, solitary existence.In Wichita Falls\, he is offered a $50 gold piece to deliver a young orphan to her relatives in San Antonio. Four years earlier\, a band of Kiowa raiders killed Johanna’s parents and sister; sparing the little girl\, they raised her as one of their own. Recently rescued by the U.S. army\, the ten-year-old has once again been torn away from the only home she knows.Their 400-mile journey south through unsettled territory and unforgiving terrain proves difficult and at times dangerous. Johanna has forgotten the English language\, tries to escape at every opportunity\, throws away her shoes\, and refuses to act “civilized.” Yet as the miles pass\, the two lonely survivors tentatively begin to trust each other\, forming a bond that marks the difference between life and death in this treacherous land.Arriving in San Antonio\, the reunion is neither happy nor welcome. The captain must hand Johanna over to an aunt and uncle she does not remember–strangers who regard her as an unwanted burden. A respectable man\, Captain Kidd is faced with a terrible choice: abandon the girl to her fate or become–in the eyes of the law–a kidnapper himself”– Provided by publisher \nThird Thursday is an informal group\, open to all\, no sign up necessary. Reserve your book at the adult circulation desk or online.
