author: Jess Lourey
description: *Starred Review* Whenthe Adonis of Battle Lake doesntshow up for an evening of romance, librarian Mira James decides that she has had it once and for all with small-town Minnesota. After dealing with only two television channels, corpses, killers,and a missing statue, Mira counted on this rendezvous to balance out her otherwise yucky existence. Instead, she finds areplacement librarian,files her last column with Battle Lake Recall, and prepares to leave town. But when her teenage library assistant is brutally murdered,Mira has to stay and solve the case.Battle Lake ispeculiar enough, butnow that a sinister religious culthas moved in,itsdownright weird. Among the quirkycitizenry is an octogenarian library workeras sly as she is crazy, a caped curator of a tick museum, a flamboyant mayor fondof the bottle, and ashady police chief. Librarians will appreciate the authors attention toeveryday operations, from shelf readingto the banned-books display and an attempt to destroy the Godless books. In all, Loureys mystery ishilarious, fast paced, and madcap. --Shelley Mosley
