Join the North Providence Mystery Book Club on Tuesday
November 1, 2016. We will be discussing Judgment Calls by Alafair Burke.
This is the first book featuring Portland, Oregon Deputy District Attorney
Samantha Kincaid. Alafair Burke is the daughter of writer James Lee Burke.
The book description from the author’s website is:” Deputy
District Attorney Samantha Kincaid walks into her office in Portland’s Drug and
Vice Division one Monday morning to find the sergeant of the police bureau’s
vice unit waiting for her. A thirteen-year-old girl has been brutally attacked
and left for dead on the city’s outskirts. Given the lack of evidence, most
lawyers would settle for an assault charge; Samantha, unnerved by the
viciousness of the crime, decides to go for attempted murder. But as she
prepares for the trial, she uncovers a dangerous trail leading to a
high-profile death penalty case, a prostitution ring of underage girls, and a
possible serial killer. And she finds her judgment — not only in matters of the
law but in her personal life — called into question.”
We will be meeting at 7:00 pm in the Library’s Second Floor
Meeting Room.
