Program Description

Event Details

Historical and Contemporary fiction full of mystery and suspense…oh my! Join us January 9th as we delve into the mysterious disappearance of Poppy Pendleton and the death of her father 85 years ago.

In her book “The Wings of Poppy Pendleton”, author Melanie Dobson takes readers on a dual-timeline historical mystery.

1907. On the eve of her fifth birthday, Poppy Pendleton is tucked safely in her bed, listening to her parents entertain New York’s gilded society in their Thousand Islands castle; the next morning, she is gone, and her father is found dead in his smoking room.”

1992. Though Chloe Ridell lives in the shadows of Poppy’s castle, now in ruins, she has little interest in the mystery that still captivates tourists and locals alike. She is focused on preserving the island she inherited from her grandparents and reviving their vintage candy shop. Until the day a girl named Emma shows up on Chloe’s doorstep, with few possessions, save a tattered scrapbook that connects her to the Pendleton family....”

Interested patrons must register to receive the Zoom information. Limited copies of the book are available for pickup at West Wyandotte Library. We look forward to having you join us!
