The January selection for the Radio Bookclub is Blackwater Falls, the latest thriller from Colorado author Ausma Zehanat Khan.

Delving deep into racial tensions, and police corruption and violence, Blackwater Falls examines a series of crimes within the context of contemporary American politics with compassion and searing insight.
 
The Radio Bookclub is a collaboration between KGNU and the Boulder Bookstore and is broadcast on the 4th Thursday of every month at 9am. The entire series, including Afterhours at the Radio Bookclub, is available as a podcast.
