Mystery Amateur Sleuth | Mystery Cozy

Israel Armstrong, one of literature's most unlikely detectives, returns for more crime solving adventure in this hilarious second novel from The Mobile Library series

Mr. Dixon Disappears once again features the magnificently hapless Israel Armstrong—the young, Jewish, duffle-coat-wearing librarian who solves crimes, mysteries, and domestic problems while driving a mobile library around the coast of Northern Ireland.

Mr. Dixon, a member of the Ulster Association of Magicians, has gone missing, along with one hundred thousand pounds in cash. It smells like a kidnapping, and once Israel is involved, he becomes a suspect in the police investigation, is suspended from his job, and has to fight to clear his name.

Does Israel's acclaimed five-panel touring exhibition showing old photographs and artifacts perhaps hold the key to Mr. Dixon's mysterious disappearance? Will romance blossom between Israel and Rosie Hart, the barmaid at the First and Last? Will Linda Wei stick to her diet? And has nobody here heard of Franz Kafka? All will be revealed in this hilarious and endlessly inventive sequel to The Case of the Missing Books.
