The book club meets the 2nd  Tuesday of every month.  They picked up Pale Horse Coming by Stephen Hunter.  Order yours today so you can come to discuss it at the next meeting on Tuesday April 14th. 

Jane Adams writes on Amazon.com,  ” Medal of Honor winner Earl Swagger returns in a hard-hitting sequel to Stephen Hunter’s best-selling Hot Springs, this time compelled by duty and friendship to follow his best friend, former Arkansas prosecutor Sam Vincent, to the most dangerous place in Mississippi. Sam has gone to Thebes, a prison for violent African American criminals, on a mission for a client. What he finds there is not only a travesty of justice, but a place where the inhumanity of the jailers is matched by the horrific secret research being carried out on helpless prisoners. Captured and tortured himself, Earl manages to escape, but in short order he’s back, along with a hand-picked posse of aging sharpshooters who are eager to prove they’ve still got what it takes. They’re also as intent as Earl is on unmasking the conspiracy and destroying the real criminals. Bloody, bullet-ridden, and brilliantly paced, this is Hunter at his explosive best.”
