Join Parker Memorial Library on Wednesday, June 18th at 12:00 PM for the continuation of Between Bites Book Club. This club is a laid-back lunch-hour book club where good stories and great conversations come together for adults ages 18 and up. This month’s book selection is “Shelterwood” by Lisa Wingate. Bring your own lunch and let’s chat while we chew!
In 1990, law enforcement ranger Valerie Boren-Odell arrives at Horsethief Trail National Park to raise her son peacefully. However, a teenage hiker goes missing, and a burial site of three children is found in a cave. With the help of the Choctaw Nation’s Tribal Police, Valerie seeks the truth while facing the land’s deadly legacy. During 1909, eleven-year-old Olive Radley recognizes her stepfather poses a danger to the Choctaw girls in their home. When one girl vanishes, Olive flees with six-year-old Nessa to the Winding Stair Mountains, encountering outlaws and treasure hunters, and forming a group with other struggling children along the way.
