Book Drop Dead

Book excerpt: Librarian Meg Booker keeps a sign above the outside book drop: NO TRASH OR VIDEOTAPES She never thought she’d have to add: NO DEAD BODIES It’s May 1985 and Meg Booker already has her hands full, what with running the busy Fir Grove branch library, helping her flaky actor brother with his latest onstage project, and caring for an orphaned kitten that shows up outside the branch. Then a rare bank note goes missing at a library event, igniting a feud between two local collectors, and Meg thinks her life couldn't get any more complicated... until a dead body turns up in the book drop room. Racing against time, Meg must use all of her librarian skills to discover the real killer's identity, before the police arrest her for the crime. Book Drop Dead is the second book of the Meg Booker Librarian Mysteries—a cozy library mystery series set in the 1980s.
