Virtual Book Club for Adults: The River We Remember
Virtual
Wednesday, Nov. 27, 11:30 am
This month we will be discussing The River We Remember by William Kent Krueger.
On Memorial Day, as the people of Jewel, Minnesota, gather, the half-clothed body of wealthy landowner Jimmy Quinn is found floating in the Alabaster River, dead from a shotgun blast. Investigation of the murder falls to Sheriff Brody Dern, a war hero who carries the scars from his military service. Even before Dern has the results of the autopsy, rumors begin to circulate that the killer must be Noah Bluestone, a Native American WWII veteran who has recently returned to Jewel with a Japanese wife. As suspicions and accusations mount and the town teeters on the edge of more violence, Dern struggles not only to find the truth of Quinn's murder but also put to rest the demons from his own past.
We have a limited number of copies available for checkout. Please contact the Ceres (209-537-8938) or Patterson (209-892-6473) Library to reserve your copy.
