By Book or By Crook by Eva Gates6/19/2023 I wanted to catch up on most of her current ones (now accomplished) before taking on the Eva Gates' books, and this week, I began with the first book in the Lighthouse Library Mysteries, By Book or By Crook. I've been a long-time fan of Vicki Delany and her multiple cozy mystery series. But when a priceless first edition Jane Austen novel is stolen and the chair of the library board is murdered, Lucy suddenly finds herself ensnared in a real-life mystery-and she’s not so sure there’s going to be a happy ending. Lucy is thrilled to land a librarian job in her favorite place in the world. But her retreat quickly turns into an unexpected opportunity when Aunt Ellen gets her involved in the lighthouse library tucked away on Bodie Island. But when her ten-year relationship implodes, Lucy realizes that the plot of her life is in need of a serious rewrite.Ĭalling on her aunt Ellen, Lucy hopes that a little fun in the Outer Banks sun-and some confections from her cousin Josie’s bakery-will help clear her head. Get bound up in murder in the first Lighthouse Library mystery!įor ten years Lucy has enjoyed her job poring over rare tomes of literature for the Harvard Library, but she has not enjoyed the demands of her family’s social whorl or her sort-of-engagement to the staid son of her father’s law partner.
