Daniels County Library Notes
The Munich Affair, by James Patterson and David Ellis is a thriller/historical fiction, but based on actual events! This story begins in pre-war Munich. Adolf Hitler is on his way up, with all of his plans for conquest and the elimination of the Jewish people. But a detective, Thomas Bauer, sees the “real” Hitler, the one with the demonic aspirations.
When Hitler’s niece if found shot, the Nazis that provide protection for Hitler, report that it was a suicide. But Bauer is not convinced, and risks his wife and family’s safety, to prove that Hitler was the killer. Journalist Fritz Gerlich, also isn’t buying the party line, so together they plot to take him out.
Years later, Professor Robbins, a researcher, uncovers the history of Thomas Bauer and delves into what really happened in Munich. This is a page turner for sure!
The Me I Used to Be,
by Kristan Higgins is a contemporary fiction that takes place in Vermont. This story follows four friends that reunite after 25 years. In high school they were called the “Core 4.” That’s how close they all were!
But a tragic event, fractured their friendship, and as usually happens, they each moved on with their lives, all in different directions. But their high school reunion is the event that caused them to get together again. Audrey, who was considered the “princess” of the group, is living the idyllic life style on her farm. She reaches out with an invitation to her old friends, to meet together for a weekend.
When everyone is all together, nervous and unsettled, Audrey breaks the news that she has early onset dementia, and wants to get their secrets out in the open, while she still has her memories. Grab the Kleenex!
