Event Details
Each month we discuss a mystery book on the second Thursday morning.
In November 2024 we will discuss Transcription by Kate Atkinson.
In 1940, eighteen-year old Juliet Armstrong is reluctantly recruited into the world of espionage. Sent to work by MI5 and tasked with monitoring the comings and goings of British Fascist sympathizers, she discovers the work to be both tedious and terrifying. After the war ends, she presumes the events of those years have been relegated to the past forever. Ten years later, now a radio producer at the BBC, Juliet is unexpectedly confronted by figures from her past. A different war is being fought now, on a different battleground, but Juliet begins to realize that there is no action without consequence.
The book will be available to borrow at the Circulation Desk, usually by the previous month's meeting. For example, the March book will be available upon request at the Circulation Desk between the February meeting and the date of the March meeting.
