Death Books a Return

Death Books a Return is a mystery novel featuring Juanita Wills, intrepid (aka nosy) public librarian in the small town of Wyndham, Oklahoma.

While researching local history, Juanita comes across the 1959 unsolved murder of a black teenager. But no one wants to dig up the past of buried secrets and broken love affairs that once entwined the citizens of Wyndham and the neighboring all-black village of Bryson’s Corner.

When her only witness is poisoned, Juanita becomes more determined to bring the killer to justice, even if it puts her own life at risk, in this second in Hill’s Scrappy Librarian mystery series.

“Cleverly presented, and the characters are endearing.” – Library Journal
