The MPCA Book Club continues through the summer, sometimes enjoying an outdoor session if the weather co-operates. The August 26 book will be The Winter Sea by Susanna Kearsley. History has all but forgotten the spring of 1708, when an invasion fleet of French and Scottish soldiers nearly succeeded in landing the exiled James Stewart in Scotland to reclaim his crown. Now, Carrie McClelland hopes to turn that story into her next bestselling novel. Settling herself in the shadow of Slains Castle, she creates a heroine named for one of her own ancestors and starts to write. But when she discovers her novel is more fact than fiction, Carrie wonders if she might be dealing with ancestral memory, making her the only living person who can know the truth of what did happen all those years ago. This is tale of love and loyalty and ultimate betrayal.
The September 23 book will be The Women by Kristin Hannan.
