Read to Death at the Lakeside Library
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
Summer is in full swing as tourists flock back to the Northwoods and travel to Lofty Pines, Wisconsin. For Rain Wilmot, owner of the Lakeside Library, this is the perfect opportunity to bring back her mother’s summer book club. But the summer sun starts to really heat up when one of the club’s members, Lily Redlin, is found dead in her own home not long after the first meeting.
Alongside her sidekick and neighbor Julia Reynolds and the charming Jace Lowe, Rain discovers that the murder is seemingly inspired by the book the club recently discussed Agatha Christie’s classic mystery novel Sparkling Cyanide. But who would kill Lily, and more importantly, why?
The deeper Rain dives into the story, the more confusing and complicated the plot becomes. Was Lily murdered to cover up a tragic accident that occurred years ago involving an old classmate? Or were the rumors true—did Lily really possess a priceless original Laura Ingles Wilder manuscript and someone killed her for it? And what about the mysterious letter Lily received just before her death from a supposed long-lost relative? Was it a hoax?
With a long list of suspects and motives, Rain realizes that all leads come back to people involved in the book club. Rain and her friends take a page from Agatha Christie’s book by hosting a reenactment of the club’s first meeting to flush out the killer. Will Rain’s plan succeed—or will this librarian’s book be checked out for good?

June 15, 2023
Old wounds opened by a Wisconsin book club may provide motives for murder. Now that she's set to take on her mom's duties at the Lakeside Library in Lofty Pines, Rain Wilmot is excited to introduce a book club to the library calendar. Once she and her best friend, Julia Reynolds, choose Agatha Christie's Sparkling Cyanide as their inaugural book, they can't wait to see who'll show up to discuss it. At the book club's first meeting, the novel's plot points take a back seat to drama between club members, some of whom seem to have relationships or rivalries that go all the way back to high school. And that's not the only drama of the meeting: Lily, one member, realizes that Kim, another member, hasn't even read the book--she's just seen the movie. Rain and Julia find themselves playing peacemakers, reminding everyone that the club is supposed to be fun, right? By the next day, though, they're debating the wisdom of choosing a mystery over a romance. Speaking of romance, things have cooled between Rain and love interest Ryan Wright, so this might be the perfect time for Rain to pursue things with Jace, a great friend who's also Julia's brother. To make things even more complicated, life imitates art when a book club member appears to have been murdered by the same method as the victim in their recent read, and Jace, in his capacity as local police officer, is interested in Rain as a potential suspect. So plotting friends Rain and Julia have to crack the case. As amiable and mild as the lakeside life that inspired it.COPYRIGHT(2023) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
