This month's selection is  Disposable Wives: Murder and Menace in Green Bay's Rural Belgian Settlement  by Lynda Drews.

In the tranquil Belgian settlement northeast of Green Bay, gossip and legend surround farmer J.P. Soquet, including a series of purported murders, three of those his wives. This riveting true story tells the remarkable means by which Pauline Villiesse, the sister of Soquet's third wifer, and Xavier Martin, a Belgian translator, seek justice for the 'disposable wives' of J.P. Soquet.
