The third book in the Annie Quitnot mystery series. Annie Quitnot, reference librarian at the Rockport Library, gets drawn into another mystery when her colleague Jean collapses behind the library desk. Jean's husband is mysteriously missing, and cannot be reached. When police check at the house, it looks partly empty. Who is moving? When it turns into murder, the newly-wed Annie puts her formidable brain to work, to the chagrin of her husband, library director Duncan Langmuir. As usual, she enlists her friend Sally to act as "Dr. Watson." To Annie, no guess is too wild or far-fetched, and in the end, Annie's involvement has some unexpected consequences.
