Karen Nash #01: Killer Librarian

- Blurb -

The first in a charming and unputdownable mystery series following "a winning heroine whose amateur sleuthing efforts make for a fun, gentle puzzler with a touch of love" (Library Journal). Champion of the mystery section at a small-town Minnesota library, Karen Nash is about to embark on a dream trip to London--a literary tour inspired by every murderous intrigue, wily suspect, and ingenious crime found in the pages of the British mysteries that she devours. But she' s clueless why the love of her life, Dave, would dump her hours before takeoff--until she spies him at the airport with a young honey on his arm. She decides the best revenge is to get on that plane anyway. . . and entertain schemes for Dave' s untimely demise while crossing the pond. After touching ground, she checks into a cozy bed and breakfast run by charming bibliophile Caldwell Perkins. Soon she' s spilling tears in her pint at the corner pub, sharing her heartbreak saga with a stranger. That night, a guest drops out of circulation--permanently. And when Dave and his cutie turn up in London, Karen realizes they are an assassin' s target. With the meticulous attention to detail that makes her a killer librarian, Karen sleuths her way through her own real-life mystery--in which library science meets the art of murder.
