4 BOOKS OTHER READERS HAVE LIKED THE UNQUIET GRAVE Sharon McCrumb Welcome to one of the strangest (and true) murder trials in American history the case of the Greenbrier Ghost. In 1930, James P. D. Gardner finds himself under the care of one Dr. James Boozer, who encourages James to reminisce about his experience as the first black attorney to practice law in 19 th century West Virginia and the man he defended against the murder of his wife whose ghost fingered the culprit and whose testimony was supported by an actual autopsy. BOOK CLUB PICK OF THE MONTH JANUARY A STRANGER IN THE HOUSE Shari Lapena Coming home one day to find that his wife is missing, Tom is mortified by a knock at the door from the police informing him that she has been taken to the hospital after a car accident. Odder still, is that Karen can't remember anything about the accident, and though the police are suspicious, she is sent home. But something s not right. Someone's been in her house. She knows it. In this house, everyone's a stranger. Everyone has something they'd rather keep hidden. Something they might even kill to keep quiet. THE CHILD FINDER Rene Denfeld Three years ago, Madison Culver disappeared in Oregon's Skookum National Forest. Certain that someone took her, the Culvers turn to Naomi, a private investigator with an uncanny talent for locating the lost and missing. Known to the police and a select group of parents as "the Child Finder," Naomi is their last hope. Taking her deep into the icy, mysterious forest in the Pacific Northwest, Naomi must wrestle with her own dark past and the secret that she was a lost girl once, too. FEBRUARY END GAME David Baldacci Will Robie and Jessica Reel are two of the deadliest agents alive. And through every mission their handler, Blue Man, has had their backs. But now, Blue Man is missing. Last seen in Colorado, Blue Man has disappeared off the grid. Sent to investigate, Robie and Reel arrive in a small town to discover that it has its own share of problems, namely that it is a magnet for crime, drugs, and a growing number of militant fringe groups. But lying in wait is an even more insidious and sweeping threat, one that may shake the very foundations of America IT S ALWAYS THE HUSBAND Michelle Campbell Kate, Aubrey, and Jenny first met in college and soon became inseparable. Twenty years later, one of them is standing at the edge of a bridge, and someone else is urging them to jump. How did it come to this? As the novel cuts back and forth between their college and adult years, you see the exact reasons why these women love and hate each other but can feelings that strong lead to murder? Or is the culprit, as the saying goes, always the husband? Copies of the Book Club s selections may be picked up at our Front Desk while supplies last! Do you a have a recommendation?
