Book Group – December 7

On December 7 at 2:30 we will discuss The Briar Club by Kate Quinn.
 
Thanksgiving 1954, Washington, D.C.  Murder tears apart Briarwood House, a down-at-the-heels all-female boardinghouse in the heart of the nation’s capital, where secrets hide behind white picket fences. In 1950 the oddball collection of neighbors kept to themselves, until the mysterious widow Grace March moved into the attic room, drawing them into an unlikely friendship. Now the Briar Club women must decide once and for all: who is the true enemy in their midst? Capturing the paranoia of the McCarthy era and evoking the changing roles for women in postwar America, this powerful story of female friendships is an intimate and thrilling novel of secrets and loyalty put to the test.
