Death By Library

JJ McGregor and the Pismawallops PTA are back in action JJ has a new job at the library, which allows her to pay her bills. That ought to make her happy, but with all those books to shelve, the PTA to run, and a 16-year-old son to raise, there's never enough time to spend with her sweetheart, police chief Ron Karlson. That's especially true with Thanksgiving on the horizon and her mother coming to visit, not to mention the PTA's Holiday Bazaar looming ahead.The PTA has to swing into action in a hurry when a grumpy member of the school board threatens plans to build a badly-needed swimming pool on the island. His objections turn out to be nothing compared to the claims of a stranger who says the land the pool would be built on is actually hers. The board meeting dissolves into chaos, and JJ leaps into action in an effort to get to the bottom of the incipient land war.Before JJ can find what she needs in the reference section, things turn deadly in the library stacks. Now JJ needs some answers fast, before she loses her job-or her life. She's determined to find out everything about the victim, and for once the library doesn't hold all the answers. JJ and Kitty may have to face the ultimate peril: a visit to Mrs. Halsey, the oldest-and crankiest-person on the island, where they may learn more than they bargained for.
