Usual Suspects
Mystery Book Club
Monday, July 18
5:30 pm - 7:00 pm
Add a little more MYSTERY to your life.
It's 1811, and the threat of revolution haunts the upper classes of King George III's England. Then a young woman is found savagely murdered on the altar steps of an ancient church near Westminster Abbey. A dueling pistol found at the scene and the damning testimony of a witness both point to one man - Sebastian St. Cyr, Viscount Devlin, a brilliant young nobleman shattered by his experience in the Napoleonic Wars.
Copies of the book are available at the circulation desk.
