"Let's Talk About It..."

Mysteries: Clues to Who We Are

Modern crime is not elsewhere and someone else's problem but is our own dilemma in the community where we live. Modern mysteries reflect the complexity of contemporary life. These books will encourage us to discover clues to our own identities.

All programs are Mondays at 7 p.m. in the Hayden H. Jones Auditorium.
