Murder Past Due
Reference librarian Megan Clark has a passion for fictional crime ̶ but when she and her fellow book group members go from reading mysteries to solving them, they discover that real-life crime is more complex than the most puzzling whodunit....The Murder by the Yard book group has been going strong for six months, and Megan Clark is eager to celebrate ̶ and increase membership. For fun and publicity, she volunteers her friend, Dr. Ryan Stevens, to lead tours of famous Amarillo murder sites. One of the sites, The Gorman estate, witnessed the strangling of a young bride and the subsequent suicide of her husband. The case was never solved ̶ but one of the Gormans wants to know what really happened, and urges the group to reopen the investigation. Megan dives into the research with her usual enthusiasm. But it's soon clear that the killer doesn't take kindly to amateur sleuths ̶ and that Megan, herself, may soon become history....
