About this Event
Looking for a read that’s dark, gripping, and impossible to put down?
This month, we’re diving into Dark Places by Gillian Flynn — a chilling psychological thriller that unravels long-buried family secrets, obsession, and the haunting pull of the past.
Libby Day was seven when her mother and sisters were murdered. She survived—and testified that her brother was the killer. Twenty-five years later, a true-crime group convinced of his innocence draws her back into the case, forcing her to uncover what really happened that night.
