New large print books donated by Brenda Whittaker:
"Fury in Death" by J.D. Robb, in memory of Hilda Crosby. NYPSD lieutenant Eve Dallas never knows what to expect when she gets word of a body. It could be an elderly man who made the mistake of climbing a ladder in slippery footwear. And the next call could be a wealthy biotech executive beaten to death in his home office — but what was Larry Chu’s mistake?
"The Boat House" by Fern Michaels, in memory of Matilda E. Whittaker. An unexpected inheritance from their late uncle brought Madison (Taylor) Wainwright and her brother Lincoln to Smuggler’s Cove. But it’s the quirky, close-knit locals who’ve convinced them to stay for the summer. The little town may be worlds away from the privileged. As Madison and Lincoln dig deeper into rumors of buried treasure, they learn that the legends underpinning Smuggler’s Cove’s history may also have the power to tear it apart.
"Theo of Golden" by Allen Levi, in memory of Charles H. Whittaker. One spring morning, a stranger named Theo arrives in the small Southern city of Golden. He doesn’t explain much about where he came from or why he’s there — but when he visits the local coffeehouse, where pencil portraits of the people of Golden hang on the walls, he begins purchasing them, one at a time, and giving each portrait to the person depicted. In exchange, he asks only for the person’s story. And so portrait by portrait, person by person, secrets are revealed, regrets are shared, and ordinary lives are profoundly altered.
"Mad Mabel" by Sally Hepworth, in memory of Ann Livak. Meet Elsie Mabel Fitzpatrick: eighty-one years old, gloriously grumpy, fiercely independent, and never without a hot cup of tea — or a cutting remark. She minds her own business in her quiet Melbourne suburb, until a neighbor turns up dead and the whispers start flying.
