SUMMARY:Mystery Book Discussion - Purple Cane Road by James Lee Burke
DESCRIPTION:Dave Robicheaux has spent his life confronting the age-old adage that the sins of the father pass on to the son. But what was his mother’s legacy? Dead to him since his youth\, Mae Guillory has been shuttered away in the deep recesses of Robicheaux’s mind. He’s lived with the fact that he would never really know what happened to the woman who left him to the devices of a whiskey-driven father. But deep down\, Dave still feels the loss of his mother and knows that the infinite series of disappointments in her life could not have come to a good end.\nWhile helping out an old friend\, Dave is stunned when a pimp looks at him sideways and asks if he is the son of Mae Guillory\, the whore a bunch of cops murdered thirty years ago. Her body was dumped in the bayou bordering Purple Cane Road\, and the cops who left her there are still on the job.\nDave’s search for his mother’s killers leads him to the darker places in his past\, and solving this case teaches him what it means to be his mother’s son.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Book Discussion - Empty Mansions by Bill Dedman and Paul Clark Newell\, Jr.
DESCRIPTION:When Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist Bill Dedman noticed in 2009 a grand home for sale\, unoccupied for nearly sixty years\, he stumbled through a surprising portal into American history. Empty Mansions is a rich mystery of wealth and loss\, connecting the Gilded Age opulence of the nineteenth century with a twenty-first-century battle over a $300 million inheritance. At its heart is a reclusive heiress named Huguette Clark\, a woman so secretive that\, at the time of her death at age 104\, no new photograph of her had been seen in decades. Though she owned palatial homes in California\, New York\, and Connecticut\, why had she lived for twenty years in a simple hospital room\, despite being in excellent health? Why were her valuables being sold off? Was she in control of her fortune\, or controlled by those managing her money? \nDedman has collaborated with Huguette Clark’s cousin\, Paul Clark Newell\, Jr.\, one of the few relatives to have frequent conversations with her. Dedman and Newell tell a fairy tale in reverse: the bright\, talented daughter\, born into a family of extreme wealth and privilege\, who secrets herself away from the outside world. \nHuguette was the daughter of self-made copper industrialist W. A. Clark\, nearly as rich as Rockefeller in his day\, a controversial senator\, railroad builder\, and founder of Las Vegas. She grew up in the largest house in New York City\, a remarkable dwelling with 121 rooms for a family of four. She owned paintings by Degas and Renoir\, a world-renowned Stradivarius violin\, a vast collection of antique dolls. But wanting more than treasures\, she devoted her wealth to buying gifts for friends and strangers alike\, to quietly pursuing her own work as an artist\, and to guarding the privacy she valued above all else. \nThe Clark family story spans nearly all of American history in three generations\, from a log cabin in Pennsylvania to mining camps in the Montana gold rush\, from backdoor politics in Washington to a distress call from an elegant Fifth Avenue apartment. The same Huguette who was touched by the terror attacks of 9/11 held a ticket nine decades earlier for a first-class stateroom on the second voyage of the Titanic. \nEmpty Mansions reveals a complex portrait of the mysterious Huguette and her intimate circle. We meet her extravagant father\, her publicity-shy mother\, her star-crossed sister\, her French boyfriend\, her nurse who received more than $30 million in gifts\, and the relatives fighting to inherit Huguette’s copper fortune. Richly illustrated with more than seventy photographs\, Empty Mansions is an enthralling story of an eccentric of the highest order\, a last jewel of the Gilded Age who lived life on her own terms.
