Description
Greer Hogan is a librarian turned sleuth, an avid reader of crime fiction who possesses an uncanny knack for deduction—and now, she’s drawn into another murder case as late autumn slowly turns to winter in the idyllic village of Raven Hill. When Anita Hunzeker, chair of the library board of trustees, is run off the road and killed, no one seems all that sorry. Anita was widely disliked, and the townsfolk would just as soon be rid of her. But when a local professor turns up dead as well, his connection to Anita and to other local residents leaves the suspect pool covering the entire county.
Greer starts poking around, and the more she digs, the more it seems like everyone she knows is trying to hide something. When she unearths a clue in the old manor cemetery, she finally discovers the shocking truth—a cache of dark secrets stretching back decades that could rock the town to its core. Everyone who’s come close to the truth has ended up dead—and if Greer doesn’t tread lightly, she could be the next librarian to get archived for good.

Reference librarian Greer Hogan leads the Raven Hill Irregulars once again in solving mysteries and fighting crime. Following the death of someone everybody loves to hate, Greer puts her sleuthing skills to the test, piecing together a mosaic from bits of information from both reference materials and local residents. I loved that more of the history of Raven Hill is revealed in the plot. It’s a wonderful whodunit and a welcome visit with beloved characters from previous books.
