Community Room C

Join librarian Jack for a discussion on All the Colors of the Dark by Chris Whitaker.

Join librarian Jack for a discussion on this decades-spanning mystery-thriller and emotional love story set in the small town of Monta Clare, Missouri in the 1970s and beyond. It begins in 1975 when young Patch, a local boy, saves a girl from an abduction, only to be kidnapped himself. As the town reels from the disappearance of girls and the suspense deepens, Patch’s loyal friend Saint tirelessly pursues answers. The novel blends crime, character exploration, and lyrical prose into an epic tale about how a single event can reverberate through a lifetime. Copies available at the Circulation Desk.
