Amateur Sleuth, Cozy

MAYHEM IN CIRCULATION

Leah Dobrinska

Larkspur Library Mysteries #2

Librarian Greta Plank is hard at work planning and preparing for Larkspur’s Fall Festival and regional tourism showcase which, if successful, will be a boon to the local economy. But disaster strikes and chances of a positive review look slimmer than a periodical’s spine when a series of pranks escalates and one of Larkspur’s own is found dead the same day the reporter is set to arrive.


Desperate to defend her town’s character and get to the bottom of the circulating mayhem, Greta begins indexing suspects. Could the crimes be an outside job, undertaken by someone intent on harming the town’s reputation? Or is someone closer to home trying to ruin Larkspur from the inside?


With destruction of property, sabotage, and strange animal mishaps piling up on top of murder, Greta wouldn’t recommend this ‘choose your own (disastrous) adventure’ to anyone. In the end, she must decide who she can trust so she can close the book on these crimes before the shadowy vandal authors another kill.

"A small town in autumn, a library, a group of girlfriends, and a murder...yes, please! Mayhem in Circulation fits all the cozy criteria you need. Leah Dobrinska’s second book in her Larkspur Library series has twists and turns that keep you guessing ‘whodunit’, and isn’t that the best kind of mystery?"
