January 2025

This month, we are reading A Safe House,  by Stuart Woods. This author wrote 70 bestsellers and over 90 novels in his lifetime.  This one was published in the year that he died, though it was not the last of his books to be published.  There are five copies on the shelf in the Contra Costa Library system. This is the 61st book in the "Stone Barrington" series.

"Stone Barrington, a suave ex-NYPD detective turned defensive lawyer, is always in the middle of some spectacular investigation. Stone is the James Bond detective, nice suit wearing, bourbon drinking, and total ladies man living it up in New York. His character is totally cliche and I love it."  (from lifeofchaz.com)

We will be meeting in the usual place at 5:30 pm. Note that we moved the January meeting to January 31st!! Change your calendars!!   Donna will lead the discussion, Kim will bring February book selections.
