Description

Bookbinder Brooklyn Wainwright discovers that some treasures are worth killing for in this novel in the New York Times bestselling Bibliophile Mystery series.   Brooklyn is thrilled to be appearing on the hit TV show This Old Attic as a rare-book expert and appraiser. Her first subject is a valuable first-edition copy of the children’s classic The Secret Garden.   After the episode airs, a man storms onto the set claiming that the owner of the book, a flower seller named Vera, found the book at his garage sale, and he wants it back—or else. Afterward, Randolph Rayburn, the show’s host, confides in Brooklyn that he’s terrified by the man’s threats and fears that he is being stalked.   When several violent incidents occur on the set, Brooklyn and her security expert boyfriend, Derek, are shaken. But Brooklyn’s discovery of Vera’s corpse in her flower shop convinces her she has to find the killer—before her chance at prime time and her life are canceled...permanently.

This was a fun, easy reading, mystery novel that I think would fall into a new category I just learned of Cozy Mysteries. I give this book 3 1/2 stars, leaning towards 4. This is the first book I've read by Kate Carlisle, and I've already picked up the 1st book in the series. Bookbinder Brooklyn Wainwright always seems to stumble upon a murder ... this time Brooklyn's working for the hit TV show This Old Attic as a rare-book expert. My only complaint, is that Brooklyn is a bit of a wimp ... she passes out at the sight of blood. She relies too much on her boyfriend Derek (who is British ex MI something and too sexy by far)
