Three Can Keep a Secret by M.E. HilliardMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Thank you to Booklist for the ARC and the opportunity to review this title.
Three can keep a secret if two of them are dead.” Greer Hogan, reference librarian and amateur sleuth in the hamlet of Raven Hill, is drawn into yet another murder investigation (following Shadow in the Glass, 2022). When the head of the library board is found dead in her car, no one seems surprised. Anita was in constant conflict with various townspeople, going so far as blackmail to get what she wanted. When a local professor also turns up dead, Greer suspects a connection and starts digging for answers. What she finds turns Raven Hill and its residents upside down. The series’ third installment is entertaining, albeit predictable. Librarians will appreciate the details concerning the daily life of a public librarian, including a breakdown of interlibrary loans, the weekend Friends of the Library book sale, and the annual children’s Halloween programs. The mystery itself is cozy and simple. Those who have read the previous two books will not get any further information about Greer’s husband, but there is an obvious nod toward a fourth book. A worthy addition to the series. Booklist 2023
