An intelligent leading lady, a good cast of supporting characters this is a good steady read.

TOME OF DEATH For some patrons of Princeton's library, books are their whole lives. But for one bookworm, they will also spell death... McLeod Dulaney has returned to Princeton as a visiting professor -- and as a lifelong lover of the written word, she spends a good amount of time browsing the Rare Books collection, where she makes fast friends. But soon she finds one of her new friends murdered in an eighteenth-century study, and the murder weapon is missing. To further confuse matters, McLeod learns that her temporary home was the site of a murder some years back, and everyone seems to have a different version of the story. A seasoned reporter, McLeod's intrigued and goes about investigating both murders. Could they have been connected? Only one thing is for sure -- this is not murder by the book...
