<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b><i>New York Times</i> bestselling author Paige Shelton returns with the next installment of The Scottish Bookshop Mystery series, <i>The Stolen Letter</i></b> <p/>Delaney Nichols is confident she's doing what she loves--case in point, just one day after returning from her fabulous European honeymoon, she's eager to get back to the Cracked Spine, the bookstore where she works. But as she disembarks her bus and hurries toward the shop she and another woman collide, sending a stack of books the woman is carrying to the ground. <p/>Delaney's hapless victim's name is Mary, and the two women can't help but notice that they bear an uncanny resemblance to one another. According to Mary, they both also look like the long-beheaded Mary Queen of Scots. Even stranger, Mary believes she is the reincarnation of the Scottish queen. But peculiar as Delaney's doppelganger is, she doesn't have time to dwell on it: on her arrival to the bookshop, she learns the Edinburgh city council wants to close the Cracked Spine, citing code violations, and she's determined to stop them. <p/>But when Mary's husband dies in a car explosion--and Delaney learns he was the very member of city council who proposed that the city take a closer look at the bookshop's construction--she starts to wonder if her meeting with Mary wasn't an accident. Edinburgh has become as filled with intrigue and deception as any European court, and Delaney is determined to get to the bottom of this royal mystery.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Vivid descriptions of Edinburgh enhance the well-crafted plot.
