Events › Swasey Book Club

Join us for the Swasey Book Club! July's selection is The Last Murder at the End of the World.

About the book:

A genre blended tale, mixing a near-future, postapocalyptic setting with a murder mystery. A fog has destroyed the entire world and all the living beings on it--except for on one island off the coast of Greece. On this island, 122 villagers and three elders live a self-sustaining, peaceful existence. Their lives are tightly controlled, but they're happy and don't have any concerns with how things are run. All except for Emory, who questions everything and struggles to find her purpose in the colony. When she wakes one morning to the murder of one of the residents and the imminent collapse of the barrier that protects their island, Emory is suddenly pressed into the role of investigator--and perhaps the savior to all.

Stop into the Swasey branch to secure your book club copy and then join us for the discussion on July 15. We hope you'll join us!
