However, when Lindsey and the library staff arrive at the old Victorian estate to gather the books, things take a sinister turn. One of the bookcases reveals a secret passage, leading to a room where a skeleton is found, clutching an old copy of The Collected Works of Edgar Allan Poe. Lindsey does a quick check of missing persons, using the distinctive 80s era clothing worn by the deceased to determine a time frame, and discovers that Briar Creek has an unsolved missing persons case from 1989. A runaway bride went missing just weeks after her wedding. No suspects were ever arrested and the cold case remains unsolved. Lindsey and the crafternoon crew decide that justice is overdue and set about solving the old murder mystery, using some novel ideas to crack the case."--Back cover. 600 10 $a Norris, Lindsey $c (Fictitious character) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Library directors $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Libraries $z Connecticut $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women $x Societies and clubs $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Cold cases (Criminal investigation) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Missing persons $x Investigation $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Runaway women $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Connecticut $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Detective and mystery fiction. 650 0 $a Cozy mysteries. 830 0 $a Library lover's mystery. 941 $a 1 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20240702042859.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=66068E5C383E11EFA74ADF9234ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
