Their trendy neighborhood will be ruined unless Brooklyn and her fiancé, Derek Stone, can persuade the shopkeepers not to sell. <p/>But with a rare edition of <i>Alice in Wonderland</i> causing bad blood at the Brothers Bookshop and a string of petty vandalism making everyone nervous, Brooklyn and Derek feel overwhelmed. Then the owner of the Rabbit Hole juice bar is felled by his own heavy shelves, and the local cobbler lies dead beside him. Things get curiouser and curiouser when a second priceless copy of <i>Alice</i> is discovered. <p/>As the Brits descend, Brooklyn learns they're not so stuffy after all. Derek's dad is won over with chocolate cream pie, and his psychic mum would <i>kill</i> to help Brooklyn solve this murder--before another victim takes a tumble.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for the <i>New York Times</i> Bestselling Bibliophile Mysteries<br></b><br>"Kate Carlisle never fails to make me laugh, even as she has me turning the pages to see what's going to happen next."--Miranda James, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of the Cat in the Stacks Mysteries <p/>"Carlisle's dialogue is natural, her prose has great flow, and her striking descriptions bring Brooklyn's world to life."--<i>Crimespree </i>Magazine <p/>"Captivating....The action builds to a surprising final showdown."--<i>Publishers Weekly</i> <p/>"A true whodunit...highlights Carlisle's story line skills, her love for books, and her always-endearing heroine."--<i>Richmond Times-Dispatch</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>A native Californian, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author <b>Kate Carlisle</b> worked in television for many years before turning to writing.
