November 2022 Book Selection

Join the North Providence Mystery Book Club on Tuesday November 1, 2022. We will be discussing Suspect by Michael Robotham. This is the first book featuring psychologist Joseph O’Loughlin. 

The book synopsis from the author’s website is” Joseph O’Loughlin appears to have the perfect life-- a beautiful wife, a loving daughter and a successful career as a clinical psychologist. But even the most flawless existence is only a loose thread away from unravelling. All it takes is a murdered girl, a troubled young patient and the biggest lie of his life. When an unknown young woman is found dead with multiple stab wounds – all of them self-inflicted – the police ask Joe to help them understand the crime. Are they dealing with a murder or a suicide? Reluctantly, he agrees to help and the brutalized body he views at the mortuary turns out to be someone he knows: Catherine Mary McBride, a nurse and former colleague. At the same time, Joe is grappling with a troubled young patient, Bobby Moran, whose violent dreams are becoming more real. As Bobby's behavior grows increasingly erratic, Joe begins to ponder what he's done in the past and what he might do next. Is there a link between his terrible dreams and Catherine McBride? Caught in a complex web of deceit and obsessed by images of the slain girl, Joe embarks upon a search that takes him into the darkest recesses of the human mind. Ultimately, he will risk everything to unmask the killer and save his family...”
