What she uncovers\, deep in the woods\, is hardly to be believed…. \nMaya was a high school senior when her best friend\, Aubrey\, mysteriously dropped dead in front of the enigmatic man named Frank whom they’d been spending time with all summer. \nSeven years later\, Maya lives in Boston with a loving boyfriend and is kicking the secret addiction that has allowed her to cope with what happened years ago\, the gaps in her memories\, and the lost time that she can’t account for. But her past comes rushing back when she comes across a recent YouTube video in which a young woman suddenly keels over and dies in a diner while sitting across from none other than Frank. Plunged into the trauma that has defined her life\, Maya heads to her Berkshires hometown to relive that fateful summer–the influence Frank once had on her and the obsessive jealousy that nearly destroyed her friendship with Aubrey. \nAt her mother’s house\, she excavates fragments of her past and notices hidden messages in her deceased Guatemalan father’s book that didn’t stand out to her earlier. To save herself\, she must understand a story written before she was born\, but time keeps running out\, and soon\, all roads are leading back to Frank’s cabin…. \nUtterly unique and captivating\, The House in the Pines keeps you guessing about whether we can ever fully confront the past and return home. \n

SUMMARY:March Living Large Book Club Discussing Beasts of the Earth by James Wade
DESCRIPTION:March’s Living Large (bestsellers) Book Club will feature an engaging discussion about James Wade’s newest book club hit – Beasts of the Earth! \nAs always\, the book is available from our online bookshop OR in-store at 10% off! \nJames Wade\, whose first two novels were praised as “rhapsodic” and “haunting\,” delivers his most powerful work to date–a chilling parable about the impossible demands of hate and love\, trauma and goodness\, vividly set in the landscapes of Texas and Louisiana. \nBeasts of the Earth tells the story of Harlen LeBlanc\, a dependable if quiet employee of the Carter Hills High School’s grounds department\, whose carefully maintained routine is overthrown by an act of violence. As the town searches for answers\, LeBlanc strikes out on his own to exonerate a friend\, while drawing the eyes of the law to himself and fending off unwelcome voices that call for a sterner form of justice. \nTwenty years earlier\, young Michael Fischer dreads the return of his father from prison. He spends his days stealing from trap lines in the Louisiana bayou to feed his fanatically religious mother and his cherished younger sister\, Doreen. When his father eventually returns\, an evil arrives in Michael’s life that sends him running from everything he has ever known. He is rescued by a dying poet and his lover\, who extract from him a promise: to be a good man\, whatever that may require. \nBeasts of the Earth deftly intertwines these stories\, exploring themes of time\, fate\, and free will\, to produce a revelatory conclusion that is both beautiful and heartbreaking.
