Happenings at the Sun Lakes Country Club Library

Mystery writer J.A. Jance’s newest release is Dance of the Bones. J.P. Beaumont of Seattle and Brandon Walker, a former Tucson area sheriff, find links between two old unsolved cases in Washington and Arizona. Then things heat up when two young Native American boys with ties to Walker disappear. The suspense mounts as these two lawmen try to piece together clues and save the boys before it is too late.

Jance grew up in Bisbee and three of her four mystery series are based in Arizona. Her knowledge of our state makes you want to visit the areas she writes about or brings back memories for those who know these colorful areas. Google J.A. Jance and you will see why she is such a popular mystery writer.

The Sun Lakes Country Club Library is fortunate to have a copy of Dance of the Bones. It is included in our new release collection. You will also find an extensive number of other recent releases available to be checked out by area residents (from 10:00 a.m.–2:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday).

Donations of newer books from our many generous patrons has made it possible to offer such a wide variety of new releases. We very much appreciate these donations and thank you for continuing to think of us as soon as you have finished that new release.

Stop by the library table at the Open House on November 14. You will find us in the Arizona Room. Be sure to sign up for the drawing of a $20 gift certificate to the Sunset Grill.

“Read It and Recycle It.” Your eager neighbors await your donations of the sought-after newer books.
