Nothing else, just a list of names on a single sheet of paper. None of the nine people know or have ever met the others on the list. They dismiss it as junk mail, a fluke - until very, very bad things begin happening to people on the list. First, a well-liked old man is drowned on a beach in the small town of Kennewick, Maine. Then, a father is shot in the back while running through his quiet neighborhood in suburban Massachusetts. A frightening pattern is emerging, but what do these nine people have in common? Their professions range from oncology nurse to aspiring actor. FBI agent Jessica Winslow, who is on the list herself, is determined to find out. Could there be some dark secret that binds them all together? Or is this the work of a murderous madman? As the mysterious sender stalks these nine strangers, they find themselves constantly looking over their shoulders, wondering who will be crossed off next....]]></description><link>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1349550</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1349550</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Swanson, Peter]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1349550026</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle>A Novel</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780062980090/MC.GIF&amp;client=ottap&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=eBook-2601288-AH</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Death of A Poison Pen]]></title><description><![CDATA[Scottish Highland constable Hamish Macbeth, while investigating poisonous pen letters sent to several Lochdubh residents, is confronted by murders that suggest peril to anyone who questions the letters.

In hope of a miracle, their priest suggests a family pilgrimage to Lourdes. Yet these pious holiday plans are thrown into disarray when anonymous, obscene letters begin to arrive, full of terrible accusations. Banned in Ireland on its first publication in 1961, Broderick's debut arrived "like an incendiary device" (Sunday Independent). The Pilgrimage anticipated the deep shifts that would soon turn the country's theocratic society upside down. It is a darkly comic, blasphemous, and sexually charged chamber drama laying bare the hypocrisies of a small Irish town "as watchful as the jungle," and teetering on the brink of catastrophe..."--]]></description><link>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1645426</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1645426</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Broderick, John]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1645426026</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781946022950/MC.GIF&amp;client=ottap&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=C</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Book Club Kit]]></title><description><![CDATA[An "investigation into family secrets, a poignant tale of mothers and daughters, and a vivid portrait of twentieth-century Parisian intellectual and artistic life.

John Broderick's fearless debut follows Julia Glynn, a respectable wife in an Irish midlands town whose carefully arranged life begins to fracture after a series of anonymous letters expose the frailty of the world she inhabits. As Julia, her ailing husband, their watchful manservant and an ambitious young doctor prepare for a pilgrimage to Lourdes, the novel plunges into the hypocrisies, longings and unspoken tensions that shape a society crackling with self-awareness and concealed passions. Darkly comic, unsettling and steeped in the atmosphere of 1950s Ireland, The Pilgrimage offers a daring exploration of sexuality, power and self‑deception. Tt stands as a vivid, transgressive classic that feels as provocative, and as essential, as ever.]]></description><link>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1716526</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1716526</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Broderick, John]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1716526026</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781807620028/MC.GIF&amp;client=ottap&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=eBook-4329113-AH</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Death Comes to the School]]></title><description><![CDATA[In the English village of Kurland St. Mary, few things are worse than having one's reputation besmirched.

Twentysomething Charlotte is now back in the classroom, this time as a substitute teacher.

In fact, a fellow teacher is hoping for help discovering the culprit behind anonymous threats being sent to her and her aunt, who's running for reelection to the Board of Education.   At first, Charlotte assumes the messages are a harmless prank. But maybe it's a good thing she left a detective kit hidden in the band room storage closet all those years ago-just in case.

Aidan struggles to cope with these two sudden extremes: instant wealth beyond his imagination, and the loss of the only woman he's ever loved, the mother of his twin children. But the money gives him and his kids options they didn't have before. They can leave everything behind. They can start a new life in a new town. So they do.  But a huge new house and all the money in the world can't replace what they've lost, and it's not long before Aidan realizes he's merely trading old demons for new ones. Because someone is watching him and his family very closely. Someone who knows exactly who they are, where they've come from, and what they're trying to hide. Someone who will stop at nothing to get what they want...]]></description><link>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1354983</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1354983</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Wilson, Carter]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1354983026</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781728247533/MC.GIF&amp;client=ottap&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=eBook-2633309-AH</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Noel Letters]]></title><description><![CDATA["After nearly two decades, Noel Post, an editor for a major New York publishing house, returns to her childhood home in Salt Lake City to see her estranged, dying father.

Every year, the poorer residents look to see that their names are on the list. The wealthier look to see how likely their sons are to survive. And Rhen Tellur opens it to see if she can derive which substances the ink and parchment are created from, using her father's microscope. In the province of Caldon, where women are trained in wifely duties and men are encouraged into collegiate education, sixteen-year-old Rhen Tellur wants nothing more than to become a scientist. As the poor of her seaside town fall prey to a deadly disease, she and her father work desperately to find a cure. But when her Mum succumbs to it as well? Rhen decides to take the future into her own hands--through the annual all-male scholarship competition. With her cousin, Seleni, by her side, the girls don disguises and enter Mr. Holm's labyrinth, to best the boys and claim the scholarship prize. Except not everyone's ready for a girl who doesn't know her place. And not everyone survives the maze"--Dust jacket.]]></description><link>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1170942</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1170942</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Weber, Mary]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2019 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1170942026</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780718080969/MC.GIF&amp;client=ottap&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=C</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Death Comes to the School]]></title><description><![CDATA[Three years have passed since Major Sir Robert Kurland and Lucy Harrington, the rector's daughter, became husband and wife.

In the 1920s, in post–World War I England, the Honorable Daisy Dalrymple, newly married to Detective Inspector Alec Fletcher, is asked by her brother-in-law to discreetly investigate a series of poisoned pen letters that many of the local villagers have been receiving. When the pompous and unbearable brother of the local vicar is killed by a very large rock, dropped on his head from a great height, it seems clear to all that this campaign of gossip has escalated to murder. With the help of her husband, who'd rather she not get involved, Daisy tries to uncover who wrote the letters and who that person has driven to murder before the killer strikes again.]]></description><link>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C855357</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C855357</guid><category><![CDATA[AB]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dunn, Carola]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2014 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/855357026</comments><format>AB</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781482965131/MC.GIF&amp;client=ottap&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1208Audio-MA</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Unspoken]]></title><link>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C718200</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C718200</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jackson, Lisa]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2012 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/718200026</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781420128222/MC.GIF&amp;client=ottap&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=C</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[El caso de la admiradora secreta]]></title><description><![CDATA[Pequeño Sherlock investigates the identity of a secret admirer, solving a series of puzzles along the way.]]></description><link>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1591600</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1591600</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[spa]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Prévot, Pascal]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1591600026</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle/><language>spa</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9788414341841/MC.GIF&amp;client=ottap&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=C</image_url></item></channel></rss>
