Murder in the Paperback Parlor by Ellery AdamsMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
4.0/5.0 stars - I am really enjoying this cozy mystery series that takes place at Storyton Hall in the hills of Virginia. The hall is an old English manor that was taken apart and transported piece by piece hundreds of years ago. Why, you might ask? The Stewards are an old family whose secret mission is to protect and preserve hundreds of priceless books. When it became too dangerous to continue to do that in the old country, the last English ancestor had the home, with its secret passages and hidden library reconstructed here. This instalment advances the Edwin/Jane love story, just a tiny bit. They each find out each other's secret, but the book ends before they can share their knowledge with each other. And of course, there is a murder or two, these taking place during the Romancing the Reader week-long event. I'm looking forward to an Ellery Adams reading year!
