Join the North Providence Mystery Book Club on Tuesday
November 6, 2018, when we will be discussing The Dark Winter by David
Mark. This is the first book featuring Aector McAvoy who is a detective
sergeant in the English city of Hull. Aector is the Scottish spelling of the
name Hector.
The summary from the publisher’s website is. “A series of
suspicious deaths have rocked Hull, a port city in England as old and
mysterious as its bordering sea. They have captured the attention of Detective
Sergeant Aector McAvoy. He notices a pattern missed by his fellow officers, who
would rather get a quick arrest than bother themselves with finding the true
killer. Torn between his police duties and his aching desire to spend more time
with his pregnant wife and young son, McAvoy is an unlikely hero: a physically
imposing man far more comfortable exploring computer databases than throwing
around his muscle. Compelled by his keen sense of justice, he decides to strike
out alone—but in the depths of the dark winter, it’s difficult to forget what
happened the last time he found himself on the wrong side of a killer’s blade…”
We will be meeting in the Second Floor Meeting Room at 7:00
pm.
