Murder Between The Pages
The Nina Foster Mystery Series
By Linda Hope Lee
Librarian
Nina Foster cannot quiet her suspicions and theories when her hometown is
shocked by murder. Nina’s concerns prompt her to get her nose out of the books
and onto a hot trail of clues. Not so fast though, author Linda Hope Lee has
some surprises in store for her protagonist cover to cover, as Nina discovers
the dangers of researching Murder Between
The Pages.
The town of
Richmond, Washington which is a suburb of Seattle, is home to Seaview Library.
This idyllic place embraces all aspects of the Arts and is a beautifully
described setting right on Puget Sound. The literary community and its supporters
are rocked by a murder in their midst. It’s truly a puzzler, and suspects are
numerous. The reader has full access to all clues discovered, and information
on the array of fascinating characters including their potential motives,
opportunities, and means. Can the reader solve the mystery before the
Librarian? Can the Librarian solve the mystery despite the life threatening
dangers she faces?
The premise
of a Librarian amateur sleuth is delightful. The Library is a community center
of activities and residents’ interactions. There’s much to be learned. Nina
Foster has an interesting background too that often influences her choices and
can result in self-imposed difficulties. She has a warm and wonderful
relationship with her dear grandmother who has a sparkling personality and
among her many interests is a skilled pool player. Nina is also beginning a
relationship with Stephen Kraslow, a widower who is a reporter newly moved to
Richmond. They are combining forces on the investigation, to the chagrin of the
police detective in charge. As Nina reviews her clues at hand with some
frustration, Stephen is encouraging, “We’ll continue to keep our eyes and ears
open. One thing I’ve learned in this business is that you can’t hurry the answers.”
All is revealed in good time.
