Meeting Room C

Get chilled and thrilled with a good mystery and discussion on the first Wednesday of every month.

State of Terror by Hillary Rodham Clinton and Louise Penny

Synopsis: A passionate young foreign service officer, a dedicated journalist and a smart, determined, but as yet untested new secretary of state must team up to defeat an intricate, carefully constructed conspiracy planned to take advantage of four years of an American government out of touch with international affairs.

Copies of the book are available at the 3rd Floor Service Desk one month before the book club meeting.

Check our catalog for a copy.
