Synopsis

The Ureborough Library Mystery is a cosy crime set in a fictitious village in North Yorkshire.
The local library is doomed to close unless Tom, the retiring librarian, can keep it alive using volunteers. He recruits feisty Helen, technology terrified Marcia and IT guru, Baldev.
In an effort to clear out an old store room they open the door to a yard they didn't know existed and find, to their horror, the body of a young woman. The police, with some help from the library committee, search for her killer.
