Wednesday Afternoon Murder Mystery Book Club: Before She Disappeared
Are you a reader looking for a murder mystery to solve, a thrill to seek, or a story full of suspense? If you answer yes to any or all these questions, you must join Edgebrook Branch's Wednesday Afternoon Murder Mystery Book Club!
For September, we are reading and discussing Before She Disappeared by Lisa Gardner.
"Recovering alcoholic Frankie Elkin spends her life doing what no one else will–searching for missing people the world has stopped looking for. A new case brings her to Mattapan, a Boston neighborhood with a rough reputation. She is searching for Angelique Badeau, a Haitian teenager who vanished from her high school months earlier. Resistance from the Boston PD and the victim’s wary family tells Frankie she’s on her own, and she soon learns she’s asking questions someone doesn’t want answered. But Frankie will stop at nothing to discover the truth, even if it means the next person to go missing could be her."
Description from Lisa Gardner
Copies of the book will be available at Edgebrook Branch's reference desk starting on 7/9/26 while supplies last.
