Communico short description
The title selected for August 27 is "Daisy Darker" by Alice Feeney.
Darker isn’t just Daisy’s surname: it’s the mood of this closed-room mystery as Daisy’s family members die one by one at a remote island home. Feeney's nod to Agatha Christie's classic mystery And Then There Were None adds a delightful twist to this quirky thriller.
The group meets twice monthly on Tuesdays mornings at 11:00 am in our small meeting room except during December around the holidays. Books are usually provided by the library, but occasionally titles are selected for reading which the library does not own in sufficient quantity. The schedule is also subject to change without notice due to unavailability of titles. Suggestions for titles are always welcomed!
