A book about books. Could life be any better? I would have chose Ellery Adam's book The Little Lost Library by title alone. But I was pleasantly surprised by the mystery within the pages. A very enjoyable read. This is the seventh book in the installment. I had no problem jumping in on this book without knowing the others. I will be reading the others.
Nora, the main character, owns a bookstore in Miracle Springs, NC. She also lives in an old train car, which I just thought was cool. One of her customers is a customer named Lucille. Because Lucille doesn't leave her home, Wynter House, Nora makes regular visits to deliver books. They have created a special readers bond, but there is a lot of mystery surrounding Lucille. Lucille does pass and her children enter the picture. It is then that Nora realizes that Lucille was a book hoarder and the family enlist her help in getting rid of the books so they can sell the house and get on with their lives..
In the mix of all of this, Lucille had left Nora a book, The Little Lost Library. There has long been a myth that a little library of great value exists but no one has found it. Within the gifted book are clues to the whereabouts of that library. Nora and her friends put on their investigator hats and begin the search. The more the searches the more her life becomes affected by mysterious and dangerous acts that threatens her very life.
I would recommend The Little Lost Library by Ellery Adams to readers with an affection for a clean mystery.
