The title refers to a human skeleton clutching a book of Edgar Allan Poe tales that is discovered in a vault-style room housing rare books. Rumors start to fly that the victim was a “runaway bride” from 40 years earlier. Lindsey, the local library Director, is one of the women who discover the body and she uses her research skills to help the sheriff figure out what happened. This is a quick and fairly straightforward read. It’s part of the author’s series “A Library Lover’s Mystery” and depicts quite accurately the work of a small-town library. Even though I was 99% sure who the culprit was about half-way through the book, it was still a pleasant time spent to confirm it.
