GCL to Introduce Sleuther Mystery Book Club

Get out your magnifying glasses and deer stalkers because the Garland County Library is starting a new mystery  book club.  The Sleuthers will convene the third Saturday of each month at 10 a.m., beginning January 21st, to discuss classic and contemporary mysteries. Our first case is a classic: Raymond Chandler's The Big Sleep, one of the finest detective novels ever and a masterpiece of hard boiled fiction.  We will sift the book for clues (or clews as I like to say, but I'm an unapologetic, dyed in the wool Anglophile) in our discussion, watch the 1948 film version with Bogey and Bacall, have a snack, and get to know our fellow detectives.  Space is limited.  To find out how you can be a Sleuther, call the library at 623-4161 or 922-4483.
