Publisher's summary

In the latest Library Lover’s Mystery from the New York Times bestselling author of A Likely Story, a decades overdue book puts library director Lindsey Norris hot on the trail of a cold case...

When the Briar Creek Public Library holds its first overdue book amnesty day—no fines for late returns—the volume of incoming materials is more than Lindsey and her staff can handle. In a bind, Lindsey drafts the crafternoon ladies to help check in and sort the stacks of books.

But one tardy tome catches her attention—a copy of J. D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye, twenty years past due. When Lindsey looks up the borrower, she’s shocked to discover it was a murdered teacher named Candice Whitley, whose killer was never found.

Candice checked out the novel on the day she was murdered. Now Lindsey wonders if it could provide a clue to the decades-old cold case. No one noticed who brought the book back in, but could it be Candice’s killer? Lindsey is determined to catch the culprit one way or another, because justice for Candice Whitley is long overdue...

Good story, but NOT a new book

I really like this story, but it is not a new book! And I’m very disappointed in Audible.com for marketing it as such. I believe at the end of the last book, Lindsey & Sully got engaged. So imagine my disappointment when this book opened with them just rekindling their relationship! When will the actual next book in the series be out?

Not a new book

Not sure how this book got listed as a new book. It’s a good book, but happens before the last book in timeline.
