Murders plague a university library--and only an intrepid book cataloger can solve them.

This mystery classic had humor and some quirky characters. Published in #1942 , the setting is an academic library with librarian Gilda as the amateur sleuth. She‘s prickly, but with a flare that makes her entertaining. Johnson uses this book to softly poke fun at academia. A nice lighthearted mystery at a time where levity was needed. The audio took me awhile to get into, but I overall enjoyed this one. #192025

Thanks #NetGalley & the publisher

A very good American Mystery Classic. The amateur sleuth is mostly sensible and the university library setting is a big plus.
