The GSV Book Club Meeting will take place on January 18th at 7 pm on Zoom. We will be discussing the book, The Searcher by Tana French.<br /><br />For our next meeting, we will be discussing the latest novel from a mystery writer who is considered one of the best crime novelists writing today and someone who appeals to people who don&#39;t ordinarily read mysteries.<br /> <br />The novel centers around a retired Chicago policeman who buys a run down farm in a tiny Irish village in order to escape the trauma of his former job and his failed marriage. He wants to build a new life in a pretty spot with a good pub where nothing much happens. A local kid comes looking for his help in order to find his missing brother; no one seems to care, least of all the police. Cal wants nothing to do with any kind of investigation but he can&#39;t make himself walk away. Against his will, he discovers that even in the most idyllic small town, secrets lie hidden, people aren&#39;t always what they seem, and trouble can come calling at his door.<br /> <br />With a back story that touches on police violence and systemic racism, this is a novel of suspense, which asks how we decide what&#39; s right and what&#39;s wrong in a world where neither is simple. <br /><br />GSV Members and Volunteers are welcome to join in the discussion of this book. Geri Cooperman will be leading the discussion and please RSVP with Geri at gcooperman@aol.com if you plan to attend.
