Events › Wednesday Afternoon Murder Mystery Book Club: Jar of Hearts

Are you a reader looking for a murder mystery to solve, a thrill to seek, or a story full of suspense? If you answer yes to any or all these questions, you must join Edgebrook Branch's Wednesday Afternoon Murder Mystery Book Club!

For March, we are reading and discussing Jar of Hearts by Jennifer Hillier.

"Angela was one of the most popular girls in her high school before she disappeared without a trace. Nobody ever knew what became of her—not Georgina, her best friend, nor Kaiser, who was close with both girls. Then, fourteen years later, Angela’s remains were discovered in the woods near Geo’s childhood home and Kaiser—who became a detective with the Seattle police department—finally learned the truth: Angela was a victim of Calvin James. To the authorities, Calvin was a notorious serial killer. But back in the day, Calvin was Geo’s first love. Their relationship bordered on obsession from the moment they met, right up until the night Angela was killed. Geo carried the secret of Calvin’s dark deeds until the evidence landed her in prison. But now, just as Geo is about to be released, new bodies start turning up—killed in the exact same manner as Angela...and soon Geo, Kaiser, and local law enforcement officials realize that what happened that fateful night is more complex and chilling than anyone could have imagined." - Description from MacMillan Publishers.

Copies of the book will be available at Edgebrook Branch's reference desk starting on 3/12/26 while supplies last.
