A LibraryReads Pick From the author of Looker comes this compulsive and unforgettable novel (Mona Awad) of razor-sharp suspense about two local librarians whose lives become dangerously intertwined.
Taut and compelling, How Can I Help You explores the dark side of human nature and the dangerous pull of artistic obsession as these transfixing dual female narrators (Kimberly McCreight) hurtle toward a stunning climax..
When a patron\'s death in the library bathroom gives her a hint of Margo\'s mysterious past, Patricia can\'t resist digging deeper--even as this new fixation becomes all-consuming.
Patricia quickly notices Margo\'s subtly sinister edge, and watches her carefully.
That is, at least, until Patricia, a recent graduate and failed novelist, joins the library staff.
She has turned a new page, so to speak, and the library is her sanctuary, a place to quell old urges.
They have no reason to suspect that she is, in fact, a former nurse with a trail of countless premature deaths in her wake.
Her colleagues and patrons at a small-town public library only know her middle-aged normalcy, congeniality, and charm.
No one knows Margo\'s real name.
