Up to Noir Good (Secrets of the Castleton Manor Library Book 11)
By Jan Fields
A bunch of would-be detectives give Faith Newberry a run for her money when she tries to uncover a local chef’s killer.
A heat wave grips Cape Cod, and librarian Faith Newberry struggles to keep her cool when she agrees to deliver a lecture about the detective code to the crime enthusiasts attending the So Noir literary retreat. Soon, she and her tuxedo cat, Watson, must play real-life detectives when Oscar North, chef and local restaurant owner, falls from the balcony and dies. Oscar’s death is rumored to be a homicide, and chaos breaks out at Castleton. The joint’s lousy with wannabe gumshoes, and they launch their own investigation into who bumped off the chef.
Meanwhile, Oscar’s widow knocks Faith for a loop by begging her to find her husband’s killer. As Watson sniffs out clues, Faith presses the suspects for information. When Faith becomes a target, it’s noir or never to solve this case.
This clever whodunit from Annie’s Secrets of the Castleton Manor Library series is a must-read for fans of cozy mysteries, reading, pets, and female friendships.
