About the Library Lover’s Mystery Series

This delightful and lengthy cozy mystery series features Lindsey Norris who moves to the small coastal Connecticut town of Briar Creek in order to become the new director of their library. She brings a lot of fresh ideas (like a Crafternoon club) and ruffles a few feathers along the way. Of course, murder pays a visit and Lindsey is enlisted to help solve the crimes.

In the first book of the series, Books Can Be Deceiving, a famous author is found dead and he just happens to be the boyfriend of Lindsey’s co-worker and friend, Beth. Lindsey has to find the real killer since Beth is the main suspect all while keeping the library running smoothly.

This series is perfect for anyone who loves libraries, treasures female friendships, and is looking for a long series that is still on-going.
