Thea Olson is looking forward to volunteering at the annual book fair and raising money for her local library. But when one of the most prominent citizens in her small North Dakota town is poisoned, Thea’s plans take a sharp turn.
With the assistance of her grandmother, the nerdy and handsome library director, and an obnoxious chameleon that only she can see, Thea searches for clues and follows leads.
Despite the fact that the chief of police dismisses the idea of foul play, Thea’s intuition tells her otherwise. As she interviews suspects, Thea stumbles across secrets and hidden motives that threaten to derail the investigation.
Can Thea piece together the puzzle before another life is lost?
Poisoned by the Book is the second installment in the humorous library series set in the fictional town of Why, North Dakota. If you like quirky characters, obnoxious buffalo, and all things bookish, you’ll love this whodunit.
