About the event

Join us virtually, or in person, this month to discuss Dark August by Katie Trello.

Augusta (Gus) Monet is living an aimless existence with her grifter boyfriend when she learns that her great grandmother -- her last living relative -- has just died. Ditching her boyfriend, Gus returns to the home she left as a young girl. While combing through her great grandmother's possessions, Gus stumbles across an old trunk filled with long-lost childhood belongings. She also discovers cold case files that belonged to her mother, a disgraced police detective who died in a car accident when Gus was eight. Is Gus ready to learn the truths that culminated on one terrible August night, more than a decade earlier, when lives were taken, and secrets were presumed buried forever?
