Ringing in a new #BookFaceFriday!
Happy New Year from the Nebraska Library Commission! Ring in the New Year with all new reading goals, like read 100 books this year, try a new genre each month, or even to save some dough by reading free books at your library. Make sure you get the Libby App downloaded on that brand-new Kindle or iPad you got for Christmas; all you need is a library card to read all the amazing books available on Nebraska OverDrive Libraries. One of those great titles is “New Year’s Eve Murder: A Lucy Stone Mystery” by Leslie Meier (Kensington Pub Corp, 2005,) available as an ebook and audiobook. It’s the twelfth novel in the Lucy Stone Mystery series, with 31 books total, and you can find them all on OverDrive!
“In Meier’s solid 12th cozy to feature Tinker’s Cove, Maine, reporter Lucy Stone (after 2004’s Star Spangled Murder), Lucy and her oldest daughter, Elizabeth, travel to New York City after winning an all-expenses-paid mother-daughter makeover from Jolie magazine. But after arriving in the Big Apple, the duo find the contest is fraught with cattiness, tension and mistrust, complicated by the magazine’s haughty editor and bickering staff. The outing turns into a nightmare after Jolie’s controversial fashion editor suddenly dies and Elizabeth falls ill from what turns out to be exposure to anthrax. Dividing her time between her daughter’s bedside and sleuthing, Lucy discovers a host of misdeeds involving real estate deals, animal rights and long-held secrets. Fans won’t mind that Meier’s light tone is sometimes at odds with the serious hot-button issues she raises.”
