MURDER OF A STACKED LIBRARIAN
Denise Swanson

Reviewed by Leanne Davis

Mystery

Skye and Wally's plans are all set for a Christmas wedding. Skye has everything under control when the substitute librarian is found dead. Wally and Sky's attention will be split between wedding plans and finding a killer quickly.

As they examine the victim's life, they discover that she had strong opinions on what was right and didn't hesitate in expressing those views. That behavior may have been what made her so unpopular in some quarters and even have lead to her demise.

As good as this mystery is, it was hard not to pay more attention to the upcoming nuptials than to keep track of the potential killers as we watch the investigation go right to the wire. Wally and Skye's life is tightly packed as they accomplish everything that needs to be done before the ceremony with the investigation that Wally can't leave with his deputies.

Wally is keeping his honeymoon plans secret while Skye focuses on the wedding plans. With her resident ghost keeping their amorous activities limited in Skye's home and the shenanigans of the townspeople, MURDER OF A STACKED LIBRARIAN is a wonderful book to start off the holiday season.

SUMMARY

There’s no place like Scumble River at Christmastime, and
this year, school psychologist Skye Denison has twice as
much to celebrateβ€”and to do. In addition to the usual
holiday frenzy, Skye’s wedding to police chief Wally Boyd
is
less than a week awayβ€”that is, if the groom isn’t too busy
working to attend. The town’s sexy new librarian, Yvonne
Osborn, has just been murdered, and the list of suspects is
piling up faster than late fees on an overdue book.

Yvonne’s strict sense of right and wrong annoyed some
townspeople and infuriated others. Did her high standards
lead to her death? Skye is distracted by worries about what
havoc the crazy Dooziers will wreak on her wedding day and
whether she’ll fit into her dress. But Skye can’t
afford to leave any page unturned because unless she works
quickly to expose the scheming killer, her happy ending may
be put on permanent hold...
