Join Parker Memorial Library for “Booked on a Thursday”Book Club 5:30 PM on Thursday, December 11th. Conversation, fellowship, and refreshments will be centered on popular book titles for adults to discuss. This month’s book selection is “The Only One Left” by Riley Sager. Refreshments will be provided by the library.
At seventeen, Lenora Hope was at the center of a chilling family massacre in 1929 that left the Maine coast shocked. Though many believe she was responsible for her family’s deaths, the police never proved it, and Lenora has remained silent for decades in her decaying cliffside mansion, Hope’s End.
Now in 1983, home-health aide Kit McDeere arrives to care for the mute, elderly Lenora, who communicates through an old typewriter. One night, Lenora offers to share her story, insisting, “It wasn’t me,” making Kit question the truth about that fateful night. As they delve into the events, Kit uncovers unsettling details about her predecessor’s sudden departure, leading her to suspect that Lenora might be more dangerous than she seems.
Participants are encouraged to check out the book by visiting the Parker Memorial Library at 500 West Broadway in Sulphur. You can also call the library at (580) 634-2315 for more information. The Parker Memorial Library is a branch of the Southern Oklahoma Library System.
