April's Selection: Tallgrass by Sanda Dallas

During Word War II, a family finds life turned upside down a Japanese internment camp is opened in their small Colorado town. After a young girl is murdered, all eyes turn to the newcomers. Rennie Stroud has never seen her town like this before. She has just turned thirteen and, until this time, life has pretty much been as it should be: predictable and fair. But now the winds of change are coming and, with them, a shift in her perspective. Rennie will discover secrets that can destroy even the most sacred things. Part thriller, part historical novel, Tallgrass is an exploration of the darkest---and best---parts of the human heart.

Copies are available at the Circulation Desk. The discussion will take place on Apr 24, 6:00-8:00pm.
