June 2025 Book Selection

 Join the North Providence Mystery Book Club on Tuesday June 3, 2025 as we discuss A Rising Man by Abir Mukerjee. This is the first book featuring Captain Sam Wyndham, an English policeman who joins the Calcutta, India police force in the 1920s.

The book description from the author’s website is, “India, 1919. Desperate for a fresh start, Captain Sam Wyndham arrives to take up an important post in Calcutta’s police force.

He is soon called to the scene of a horrifying murder. The victim was a senior official, and a note in his mouth warns the British to leave India – or else.

With the stability of the Empire under threat, Wyndham and Sergeant ‘Surrender-not’ Banerjee must solve the case quickly. But there are some who will do anything to stop them…”

We will be meeting in the First Floor Conference Room at 6:30 pm and on Zoom. For more information, ask Sara at the Reference Desk.
