Join the North Providence Mystery Book Club on Tuesday February 7, 2023 when we will be discussing, The Drifter by Nicholas Petrie. This is the first book featuring Marine veteran Peter Ash, suffering with extreme claustrophobia after returning back from service in the Middle East.
The book description from the author’s website is, “Peter Ash came home from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan with only one souvenir: what he calls his “white static,” a crackling claustrophobia from post-traumatic stress that has driven him into the mountains, to sleep under the stars. But when a friend from the Marines commits suicide, Peter returns to civilization to help the man’s widow with some home repairs. Under her dilapidated porch, he finds more than he bargained for: the largest, ugliest, meanest dog he’s ever encountered, and a Samsonite suitcase stuffed with cash and explosives. As Peter begins to investigate this unexpected discovery, he finds himself at the center of a plot that is far larger than he could have imagined – and it may lead straight back to the world he thought he’d left for good.”
We will be
meeting in the Second Floor Meeting Room at 6:30 pm and on Zoom. For more
