The Secret in the Stacks

A Maple Glade Library Mystery
Book 4 in The Cozy Novel Club Series
by Brandi Knight

In Maple Glade, even the quietest shelf can hide the loudest secret…

When the antique bookstore cat, Hemingway, begins pulling books from the same forgotten library shelf night after night, bookstore co-owner Vanessa Hart can’t ignore the strange ritual. Curious, she traces the behavior to a long-missing botanical volume last checked out decades ago — by Edwin Mercer, the town librarian whose sudden death was ruled an accident… and whose colleague Arthur Bell was quietly blamed ever since.

But the more Vanessa reads Mercer’s notes and marginalia, the clearer it becomes: Mercer was uncovering dangerous truths about medicinal plant research hidden within Maple Glade’s historic archive. Truths someone was willing to silence forever.

As Vanessa follows clues through dusty stacks, botanical ledgers, and a long-abandoned herb garden, she discovers that Mercer’s death was no accident — and that the real killer has lived undisturbed in Maple Glade for thirty years.

Now, with the town’s past poised to resurface and an innocent man’s reputation at stake, Vanessa must finish the investigation Mercer began… before history is buried again.

Because in Maple Glade, every book has a history —
and every history has a mystery.
