Discover new reads and enjoy lively discussions with our Sunday afternoon discussion group - So Many Books, So Little Time. This month's book Black Cake by Charmaine Wilkerson begins with Eleanor Bennett's death, which leaves behind a puzzling inheritance for her two children, Byron and Benny. This consists of a traditional Caribbean black cake made from a family recipe with a long history, and a voice recording. In her message Eleanor shares a tumultuous story about a headstrong young swimmer who escapes her island home under suspicion of murder. Can Byron and Benny reclaim their once-close relationship, piece together Eleanor's true history, and fulfill her final request to "share the black cake when the time is right"?
