Meet the Author <\/strong>– Wednesday 18 March 2020, 7pm, Wenvoe Community Centre<\/p>\n Free entry but a donation to the library would be welcome.<\/p>\n Come listen to and meet Sam Hurcom as he talks about his book A Shadow on the Lens that is based in Dinas Powys.<\/p>\n As the strange case unfolds, Thomas senses a growing presence watching him, and try as he may, the villagers seem intent on keeping their secret. Then one night, in the grip of a fever, he develops the photographic plates from the crime scene in a makeshift darkroom in the cellar of his lodgings. There, he finds a face dimly visible in the photographs; a face hovering around the body of the dead girl \u2013 the face of Betsan Tilny.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Gardeners\u2019 Question Time, <\/strong><\/p>\n 7:00 p.m. Wednesday 15th April, Wenvoe Community Centre<\/p>\n Join us for a good-humoured evening where an audience of amateur gardeners can put their horticultural questions to our panel of local experts.

How It All Began is a book of consequences. Charlotte in her late 70s is mugged and suffers a broken hip. The story describes the knock-on effects of this event. Charlotte\u2019s daughter Rose works as Sir Henry\u2019s secretary but has to attend to her mother. Sir Henry calls his niece Marion to cover Rose. Marion sends a text to her lover Jeremy to cancel their tryst. Jeremy\u2019s wife reads the text, and so the story unfolds. We all agreed that this was a pleasant if not a challenging read and gave it an overall score of 5\/10<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" New Volunteers. – We would like to welcome our new volunteers Trisha and Paula.
