A secret library. A murdered colleague. Can professor Jo Blue Oliver use her love of Agatha Christie to solve a case?Jo Blue Oliver, an outspoken English professor at a small West Virginia college, has made a fascinating literary discovery in her new home: a hidden library tucked behind a secret door. The cozy room is stocked with an entire leather-bound collection of Agatha Christie books—the perfect setting for a private book club with her college-grad daughter, Millie. Unfortunately, before the first meeting even takes place, fellow English professor Lucas Clements is found strangled in the campus pool. Then a skittish young student named Avery is reported missing. Noticing parallels to one of Dame Agatha’s classics—their first book club pick—Jo Blue can’t resist doing a little sleuthing of her own. But if there’s one thing any Agatha fan should know to expect, it’s a plot twist—and a rising body count. Jo Blue’s library is just one of many secrets in this college town…and some of them are downright deadly…

An abandoned greenhouse. A missing student. And an Agatha Christie book club that just might crack a decades-old crime.At the latest meeting of the Christie Club, hosted by English professor Jo Blue Oliver and her daughter, Millie, Agatha Christie’s Nemesis is on the menu—along with delicious treats and fascinating revelations about a real-life cold case in their West Virginia college town.Jo’s mother, Viola, shares the story of a young theater major named Delilah, who disappeared in the 1980s. A nursing home resident claimed she saw a mysterious figure dragging a rolled-up rug. Was Delilah’s body inside? Jo Blue can’t resist a cliffhanger like that, especially when there’s a chance to finally catch a killer and see justice done. As Jo digs into old news articles and visits the nursing home for clues, a new mystery emerges. College president Riley Coffman—the man Jo is developing complicated feelings for—discovers threatening notes in his home. The messages are disturbing enough, but how did the culprit get inside? Though the two mysteries are separated by decades, they may be connected—by an old campus greenhouse that’s slated for demolition.Just as the cold case resurfaces, so does a web of deadly resentment—along with a killer who thought their perfect crime would stay buried forever…
