I was walking by the Circulation Desk yesterday morning when Evangeline, the library’s Assistant Circulation Librarian stated that she had “seized the opportunity over my long weekend to catch up on a little reading and wound up finishing two books!” I was intrigued and asked her if she would mind writing about the books on the library’s blog. She graciously agreed to write about them and presto, here they are! Evangeline will write about the fiction book she recently read, in today’s entry, and will write about the nonfiction book of essays on Thursday’s blog. Take it away, Evangeline…
In Grave Justice by Glen Ebisch, Amanda Vickers and Marcie Ducasse are editors for a small New England magazine researching folklore and legend for a regular feature called “Weird Happenings”. Amanda is attending a séance and Marcie is looking for eyewitness accounts of the local lake monster in the same little town in Maine.
At the séance, the medium gives an eerily specific prediction concerning the murdered wife of the millionaire who is sponsoring the gathering. The medium says that a clue to the murderer of his wife can be found in the coffin with her body. This prediction sparks a break in at the family mausoleum and a young man is attacked when he stumbles upon the would-be grave robber. Amanda and Marcie must sort through the clues and misdirection before the murderer kills again; and Marcie still has to get photos of the lake monster!
This is the second Avalon Mystery featuring Amanda and Marcie working together to bust some ghosts and to solve a murder. The first book is The Crying Girl also by Glen Ebisch.
