Brooklyn and Derek plan a special Christmas Eve buffet with all
the trimmings. The festive mood takes a twist when a phone call interrupts with
an invitation to a wedding in Scotland. It should be a merry occasion, but the
phone call ends with the news that twelve books have been lost or stolen from
their library. These were first editions that would fetch a handsome price.
Off to Scotland at a moment's notice, with mom and dad
tagging along. There’s lots going on in the castle in Scotland and so many people.
So many suspicious people. I had to keep a cheat sheet to follow who was who,
who knew what, and what their motive might be.
Lots of food, tons of drinks and planning for a wedding with
little notice to anyone. There’s a lot to be learned about book binding and
archery. There was just a lot going on with many people that made the missing
books a small tidbit to deal with.
And then there’s murder. I was two-thirds through the book
before the body was found.
The book provides an interesting description of a week among
friends with some scary noises, bats and a weird librarian. Quite a mix.
I received an advanced reader copy from #Netgalley in
exchange for my honest review.
