June's Read: Woke Up Lonely by Fiona Maazel

From the official book description:
"Thurlow Dan is the founder of the Helix, a cult that promises to cure loneliness in the 21st century. With its communes and speed-dating, mixers and confession sessions, the Helix has become a national phenomenon -- and attracted the attention of governments worldwide. But Thurlow, camped out in his Cincinnati headquarters, is lonely -- for his ex-wife Esme and their daughter, whom he hasn't seen in 10 years.

Esme, for her part, is a covert agent who has spent her life spying on Thurlow, mostly to protect him from the law. Now, with her superiors demanding results, she recruits four misfits to both a reconnaissance mission in Cincinatti. But when Thurlow takes them hostage, he ignites a siege of the Helix House that will change all lives forever."

Sound interesting? Then read it and join the group at Liz's house Monday, June 17 to discuss.
