Minerva Peniston, intrepid spinster and book lover, is determined to capture the villain who tried to shoot a duke at a book auction—imperiling her father’s position and the only home she’s ever known. And now the same wealthy bibliophiles are gathering at Wycliffe Manor . . .

Paul Upton, overeducated and impoverished curate, has volunteered to assist the residents of Wycliffe Manor in preparing for a book auction to save the village and the manor’s future. When an intriguing wallflower drags him into aiding her quest to find a potential killer, he agrees for her safety, and to keep trouble from upending the long-awaited nuptials of the manor’s owner.

Despite their efforts, Minerva’s chatty book-collecting friend is strangled before the auction begins. A killer on the loose threatens to upend both sale and wedding. Paul and Minerva must determine what secrets the garrulous victim revealed . . . and to whom . . . before the murderer strikes again.

With valuable manuscripts at risk and a half dozen more potential victims on hand, only an unlikely white knight and mousy spinster can save the auction and the wedding. As much as Minerva adores books, even she knows they aren’t worth dying for.©2023 Patricia Rice (P)2025 Tantor Media
