Hello Everyone, the Book Nook is now re-opened<br />
and we look forward to seeing you all come in and<br />
browse.<br />
Due to health reasons and COVID-19, masks must<br />
be worn at all times, and members no longer will sign<br />
out books but will hand them to the volunteer who<br />
will sign it out on your behalf. Please have your IPP<br />
card or membership card available which has your<br />
name on it. Also, all magazines have been removed<br />
due to COVID protocols.<br />
We have recently purchased new books for you to<br />
enjoy, one of which is the new book in the Seven<br />
Sister Series “The Missing Sister” by Lucinda Riley<br />
which was recently published.<br />
The book I am going to tell you about is “A<br />
Gambling Man” by David Baldacci. Aloysius<br />
Archer just got out of prison and plans to head to<br />
California and make a fresh start. Along the way, he<br />
stops in Reno where he meets Liberty Callahan, an<br />
aspiring actress who plans to go to Hollywood to<br />
become famous.<br />
While in Reno, he buys a 1939 Delahaye<br />
convertible which he can drive on this long trip,<br />
along with Liberty who he offers a ride to. They<br />
arrive in Bay Town, California, where Archer has<br />
arranged to meet with P.I. Willie Dash and train with<br />
him to become his apprentice. He lands the job with<br />
Dash but immediately is working a blackmail case<br />
involving a wealthy politician running for Mayor.<br />
It seems there are others who do not want him to<br />
become mayor and murders start taking place.<br />
Liberty manages to find a job at a local gambling den<br />
where one of the murders takes place, as Archer and<br />
Dash try to find who is responsible for these murders.<br />
There are many twists and turns in this page-turning<br />
book, which I hope you will enjoy reading as much<br />
as I did.<br />
Stay safe and healthy.<br />
Happy Reading,<br />
Your bookworm and Librarian,<br />
