Join us for our true-crime book discussion group. This month's title: Under the Banner of Heaven: A Story of Violent Faith by Jon Krakauer.
Morman brothers Ron and Dan Lafferty insist they received a commandment from God to kill their blameless victims. Krakauer constructs a multilayered, bone-chilling narrative of messianic delusion, savage violence, polygamy, and unyielding faith.
A limited number of loaner copies will be available at the Adult Information Desk beginning on April 11.
