This month we read The Exception by Christian Jungersen, a Danish author. It's a psychological/political thriller about four women who work the the Danish Center for Information on Genocide. Two of the women receive death threats by email, and they begin to suspect their co-workers. It's an interesting study of human capacity for both good and evil, with some interesting comparisons of office politics to full-scale genocides. I found it to be a compelling book, but not necessarily great literature. It made for a good discussion.
