To the Tome of Murder

by Lauren Elliott

Book 7 of the Beyond the Page Bookstore Mystery series

Bookshop owner Addie Greyborne plans a November display of American writing and traditional holiday recipes while her coastal town prepares for a historical cooking competition. Her seasonal plans are interrupted when her cousin's boyfriend is murdered. A missing first edition and a mysterious briefcase draw Addie into a case whose clues lead through books and local relationships. This Thanksgiving-season bookstore mystery suits readers who enjoy literary puzzles, New England atmosphere, and history woven into a contemporary investigation.
