This mystery discussion group of the Bel Air library was formed in February by librarians Nancy Smith, an avid mystery reader, and Amy Kraft, a newcomer to the genre. Sometimes the entire group reads a designated book, and at other times a theme is chosen, allowing each member to pick a related mystery. Recently members toured Tudor Hall (shown here), the boyhood home of John Wilkes Booth, and discussed not only the “mystery” of a conspiracy, but also assassinations in general.

Now reading: Christine Falls by Benjamin Black

Liked a lot: Ruth Rendell's End in Tears, Kate Atkinson's Case Histories and Charles Todd's A Test of Wills.
