"Move over, Cassandra Mitchell, Helma Zukas, and Jordan Poteet; Juanita Wills has joined you at the checkout desk! Today's libraries are not quiet, safe havens and librarians aren't shy folk, afraid to face the dangers their inquisitiveness may bring their way. Librarian Juanita Wills takes on the local militia, racism, murder and the petty squabbles of her library staff in a mystery that mixes the coziness of small town mores with the hard-boiled edge of big city crime. But forget about a bookmark—you won't stop reading long enough to need one!"
—Jeanette Larson, Librarian, Austin (Texas) Public Library

—Judy Leavitt, Iowa librarian
"This is definitely a page-turner, with the reader unsure until the last exactly who the culprit is."
