Join the North Providence Mystery Book Club on Tuesday July
2, 2019. We will be discussing Murder at the Brightwell by Ashley Weaver. This is the
first book featuring Amory Ames, a young woman stuck in a loveless marriage in
1930's Britain.
The synopsis from the publisher’s website is “Amory Ames, a
wealthy young woman questioning her marriage to her notoriously charming
playboy husband, Milo, is looking for a change. She accepts a request for help
from her former fiancé, Gil Trent, not knowing that she’ll soon become
embroiled in a murder investigation that will not only test her friendship with
Gil, but also will upset the status quo with her husband.
Amory accompanies Gil to the luxurious Brightwell Hotel in
an attempt to circumvent the marriage of his sister, Emmeline, to Rupert Howe a
disreputable ladies man. There is more than her happiness at stake, however,
when Rupert is murdered and Gil is arrested for the crime. Matters are further
complicated by Milo’s unexpected arrival, and as the line between friend and
foe becomes less clear, Amory must decide where her heart lies and catch the
killer before she, too, becomes a victim.”
We will be meeting in the Second Floor Meeting Room at 7:00
pm.
