This month’s selection is The Dig by John Preston. In the long hot summer of 1939, Britain is preparing for war. But, on a riverside farm in Suffolk, there is excitement of another kind: Mrs. Pretty, the widowed farmer, has had her hunch proved correct that the strange mounds on her land hold buried treasure. As the dig proceeds against a background of mounting national anxiety, it becomes clear though that this is no ordinary find ... and soon the discovery leads to all kinds of jealousies and tensions. (goodreads) The movie stars Carrie Mulligen, Ralph Fiennes, and Lilly James. Rated PG-13 for brief sensuality and partial nudity (IMDB) A light snack is served. Registration required.
