Front Porch — 305 Broadway, Methuen, MA

This book group focuses on authors and stories that explore diverse and underrepresented voices and experiences. This month's book is "The Fox and The Devil" by Kiersten White. A little about the book: Anneke has a complicated relationship with her father, Abraham Van Helsing--doctor, scientist, and madman devoted to the study of vampires--until the night she comes home to find him murdered, with a surreally beautiful woman looming over his body. A woman who leaves no trace behind, other than the dreams and nightmares that now plague Anneke every night. Spurred by her desire for vengeance and armed with the latest forensic and investigatory techniques, Anneke puts together a team of detectives to catch this mysterious serial killer. Because her father isn't the only inexplicable dead body. There's a trail of victims across Europe, and Anneke is certain they're all connected. Books will be available at the Main Desk for one month before this meeting. New members are always welcome.
