Swasey Book Club

Join us for the Swasey Book Club! November's selection is Starvation Heights by Gregg Olsen.

About the book:

In 1911 two wealthy British heiresses, Claire and Dora Williamson, came to a sanitorium in the forests of the Pacific Northwest to undergo the revolutionary "fasting treatment" of Dr. Linda Burfield Hazzard. It was supposed to be a holiday for the two sisters. But within a month of arriving at what the locals called Starvation Heights, the women were emaciated shadows of their former selves, waiting for death. They were not the first victims of Linda Hazzard, a quack doctor of extraordinary evil and greed who would stop at nothing short of murder to achieve her ambitions.

Stop into the Swasey branch to secure your book club copy and then join us for the discussion on November 17. We hope you'll join us!
