Current Book Club Selection
Join us in reading Forty Dead Men, the tragic, bittersweet story of a returning veteran with PTSD. The novel, written by Tempe author Donis Casey, is a historical mystery. Here’s what Cathy Cole of Kittling Books in Phoenix has to say: “When I first learned that the primary detective was an Oklahoma grandmother, I was dubious. The more I read, the more I liked Forty Dead Men. The mystery is wonderfully constructed. It kept me guessing right to the end. And that ending! It was…I’m afraid any adjective I use will give things away. Let’s just say that I thought the ending was terrific.”
Thanks to Book Club sponsor Poisoned Pen Press, Donis Casey will join us for an author chat at the KJZZ Holiday StoryFest & Authors Showcase on December 1st at the Glendale Civic Center.
