Murder in the Reading Room by Ellery Adams

I loved how the cat was defended in this book.

He lives in Sotryton Hall but mostly keeps to himself unless he wants someone’s food. The cat, Muffet Cat, is like a stray cat in a way. Double trouble and full of mischief…yet the danger and real trouble have just begun…Įllery Adams is a master of suspense, intrigue, and mystery. Even the spa is named after a famous writer. Everything in this novel is booked theme.

A murder mystery that spirals out of control. Yet on the day of building, a body is found with a book. Jane is planning on building a luxurious spa to attract people. Inside it, there is a library with dozens of mysterious books waiting to be read. So many literary references and book talk that I could not stop reading it. Murder in the Locked Library by Ellery Adams is an exciting adventure. As the questions-and suspects-start stacking up, Jane will have to uncover a killer before more unhappy endings ensue. The attendees of the Rare Book Conference are eager to assist Jane with this unexpected historical mystery-until a visitor meets an untimely end in the Henry James Library. But when the earth is dug up to start laying the spa’s foundation, something else comes to the surface-a collection of unusual bones and the ragged remnants of a very old book. With her twins, Fitzgerald and Hemingway, back in school, Jane Steward can finally focus on her work again-managing Storyton Hall, and breaking ground on the resort’s latest attraction: a luxurious, relaxing spa named in honor of Walt Whitman.

Welcome to Storyton Hall, Virginia, where book lovers travel from near and far to enjoy the singular comforts of the Agatha Christie Tea Room, where they can discuss the merits of their favorite authors no matter how deadly the topic.
