How Can I Help You
Author: Sims, Laura
Publication Date: 07/18/2023
Format: Hardcover
From the author of Looker comes this ācompulsive and unforgettable novelā (Mona Awad) of razor-sharp suspense about two local librarians whose lives become dangerously intertwined.
No one knows Margoās real name. Her colleagues and patrons at a small-town public library only know her middle-aged normalcy, congeniality, and charm. They have no reason to suspect that she is, in fact, a former nurse with a trail of countless premature deaths in her wake. She has turned a new page, so to speak, and the library is her sanctuary, a place to quell old urges.
That is, at least, until Patricia, a recent graduate and failed novelist, joins the library staff. Patricia quickly notices Margoās subtly sinister edge, and watches her carefully. When a patronās death in the library bathroom gives her a hint of Margoās mysterious past, Patricia canāt resist digging deeperāeven as this new fixation becomes all-consuming.
Taut and compelling, How Can I Help You explores the dark side of human nature and the dangerous pull of artistic obsession as these ātransfixing dual female narratorsā (Kimberly McCreight) hurtle toward a stunning climax.
