There's simply no other way to start this review other than by saying Wednesday Night Whites by Marci Lin Melvin is one of the most powerful historical thrillers I've read in years.
Chester is an idyllic village in Nova Scotia. But don't be fooled. Entitlement flourishes, and evil hides in plain sight. On the surface, it's a war against women, but deep down, it's even more insidious. There's a network called the Wednesday Night Whites, which operates under the guise of an elite social club for men who use their power and privilege to conceal [horrific] crimes. As the group grows and becomes more emboldened by its own power, the rate of domestic violence rises, along with the number of missing or murdered women.

Local authorities are overwhelmed and, for the most part, at a complete loss, as much of their investigation is obstructed by corruption and just plain old fear. At the same time, a private investigative team is brought in by a top-secret task force with the directive to look into Ruben Hollywood, a prominent attorney with Christmas, Hollywood, and Bear. Hollywood's extremist ties and growing political influence make him a key person of interest. As the investigation deepens, however, it seems less about finding a single killer and more about exposing an entire system of power and privilege... Sheri Hoyte, Reader Views
