DESCRIPTION:
While in England, a first edition of Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights leads bookstore owner Addie Greyborne to a murder on the moors . . .
Although enjoying her extended stay working at Second Chance Books and Bindery in West Yorkshire, Addie still feels adrift—far from home, her friends, and her own beloved bookstore, Beyond the Page Books and Curios. The engagement party of her dear friend, Tony, at Milton Manor promises to be a joyful distraction. But there’s an ill wind blowing at the When Tony presents his fiancé with a special copy of Wuthering Heights as an engagement gift, the lord of the manor insists the book was stolen from his library . . .
Things go from troubling to tragic when Addie takes her Yorkipoo, Pippi, out for a walk on the moors and stumbles across the body of a young woman. When the police suspect Tony of foul play, Addie vows to get to the bottom of what’s going on. But it’s a twisted, treacherous path to the truth and Addie will need to watch her every step . . .
MY THOUGHTS:
Addie is still devastated from her almost-wedding, so she has temporarily left Grayborne Harbor and is now in England, and has been rather enjoying working at Second Chance Books. Addie loves books, so this job is second nature to her. Now that she feels that she is truly over her broken engagement, so she is looking forward to returning hone and seeing her friends again. No doubt she will miss the new friends she made in England. However, there is a murder. Wait! This is nothing new to Addie, as she has become a talented amateur sleuth.
So, she steps in and plans on solving the murder, further delaying her trip to return home. Murder is not the only thing getting in Addie’s way, there is also a stolen necklace and the disappearance or a rare first edition of Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights. Call it skill, call it experience, but it doesn’t take long for Addie to know everything is connected one way or another. Clearly, Addie is doing what she does best - acting as the perfect amateur sleuth.
I loved this addition to the Beyond the Page Bookstore Mystery series. In fact, I binge read the series and have really gotten to know Addie and some of her friends. This is indeed the perfect cozy mystery, especially bringing in the disappearance of that rare book. Then, when you factor in the snappy twists and turns, you can’t go wrong with A Limited Edition Murder.
Many thanks to Kensington and to NetGalley for this ARC to review in exchange for my honest opinion.
