Book Description
In a Chicago suburb, conflict flares: a reading by an LBGTQ+ author is canceled when the library hosting the event receives violent threats on social media and a single bullet is dropped in the outside book return. The police cannot guarantee safety at the event and the library regrettably cancels the reading. Christine Bernard, a retired nurse, rallies her friends to protest the book banning group in her village, and one morning while filling the bird feeders in her front yard, is gunned down and killed by three men in a passing car. They are arrested and linked to neo-Nazi and white supremacist ideology. The murder shocks the suburb and devastates Terry, the victim’s husband.
