The MUM Book Discussion group will next meet on Friday, August 22. Our title is In the Woods by Tana French. Here is a brief summary:
"Detective Rob Ryan and his partner, Cassie Maddox, investigate the murder of a 12-year-old girl near a Dublin suburb. The case resonates with similarities to a murder committed twenty years before that involved two children and the young Ryan. Now, with only snippets of long-buried memories to guide him, Ryan has the chance to uncover both the mystery of the case before him and that of his own shadowy past." (publisher)
Here is where you can find the book:
- There are several copies available from Miami and OhioLINK libraries, using the Miami University Libraries Search, or by checking at your local public library (our statewide access to public libraries' collections, SearchOhio, will be down from August 1 to the end of October to allow for technical upgrades).
- Amazon has the hardcover, paperback, and Kindle available, and Bookshop.org has links to purchase the title from independent booksellers.
Our group is always finding interesting titles to share, and we look forward to the new things you'll bring to the table. In addition to discussing Be Ready When the Luck Happens, the group also shared these titles for consideration at their July 23 meeting:
