For fans of Miranda James and Jenn McKinlay, the third
conspiratorially delightful third entry in Victoria
Gilbert’s critically acclaimed Blue Ridge Library mysteries.
Has a curse fallen on the small town of Taylorsford,
Virginia? After a young woman goes missing during a spring
bonfire, library director Amy Webber must wade through the
web of lies only to find a truth that she may not want to
untangle.
Spring has sprung in quaint Taylorsford, Virginia, and the
mayor has revived the town’s long-defunct May Day
celebration to boost tourism. As part of the festivities,
library director Amy Webber is helping to organize a
research project and presentation by a local folklore
expert. All seems well at first—but spring takes on a sudden
chill when a university student inexplicably vanishes during
a bonfire.
The local police cast a wide net to find the missing woman,
but in a shocking turn of events, Amy’s swoon-worthy
neighbor Richard Muir becomes a person of interest in the
case. Not only is Richard the woman’s dance instructor, he
also doesn’t have an alibi for the night the student
vanished—or at least not one he’ll divulge, even to Amy.
When the missing student is finally discovered lost in the
mountains, with no memory of recent events—and a dead body
lying nearby—an already disturbing mystery takes on a
sinister new hue. Blessed with her innate curiosity and a
librarian’s gift for research, Amy may be the only one who
can learn the truth in Past Due for Murder, Victoria
Gilbert’s third charming Blue Ridge Library mystery.
