Murder by the Book (Large Print)

Description

Addie Greyborne loved working with rare books at the Boston Public Library--she even got to play detective, tracking down clues about mysterious old volumes. But she didnt expect her sleuthing skills to come in so handy in a little seaside town . . . Addie left some painful memories behind in the big city, including the unsolved murder of her fiance and her fathers fatal car accident. After an unexpected inheritance from a great aunt, shes moved to a small New England town founded by her ancestors back in colonial times--and living in spacious Greyborne Manor, on a hilltop overlooking the harbor. Best of all, her aunt also left her countless first editions and other treasures--providing an inventory to start her own store. But theres trouble from day one, and not just from the grumpy woman who runs the bakery next door. A car nearly runs Addie down. Someone steals a copy of Alice in Wonderland. Then, Addies friend Serena, who owns a nearby tea shop, is arrested--for killing another local merchant. The police seem pretty sure theyve got the story in hand, but Addies not going to let them close the book on this case without a fight . .
