Looking for a fun new read? The library is constantly receiving new materials, including the items below. Why not stop by and check out a book, CD, movie, or other material that you find interesting. We will continue to offer “Grab and Go” services for those who prefer to place their books on hold online and then pick them up in the cabinet inside the library.

Here are a few of the new books that have arrived at the library recently. We invite you to check them out!

Tea and Treachery

As the proprietor and head pastry chef of Tea by the Sea, a tearoom on the picturesque bluffs of Cape Cod, Lily Roberts has her hands full. But nothing keeps her busier than steering her sassy grandmother, Rose, away from trouble. Rose operates the B & B adjacent to Lily’s tea shop … for now. Real estate developer Jack Ford is pushing hard to rezone nearby land, with an eye toward building a sprawling golf resort that would drive Rose and Lily out of business. Things get sticky when Ford is found dead at the foot of Rose’s property and the police think she had something to do with it. Now, it’s up to Lily to uncover the real killer.

The Discreet Charm of the Big Bad Wolf

The Department of Sensitive Crimes is downsizing in light of a recent downturn of sensitive crime, and staff members are wondering who among them will be transferred elsewhere. As the bickering between colleagues intensifies, Ulf tries his best to stay above the fray. But when Anna, a longtime friend and coworker, appears to blame him for an old case that went sideways, it seems she may be putting her own job prospects above their friendship. Meanwhile, Ulf embarks on an important inquiry: a man’s cabin has disappeared and Ulf is tasked with finding out what happened. How exactly does one steal a house? And, more to the point, how does one track down a stolen house?

The Coworker

Dawn Schiff is strange. At least, everyone at work thinks so. She never says the right thing. She has no friends. And she is always at her desk at precisely 8:45 a.m. So when Dawn doesn’t show up to the office one morning, her coworker Natalie Farrell—beautiful, popular, top sales rep five years running—is surprised. Then she receives an unsettling, anonymous phone call that changes everything. Now, Natalie is irrevocably tied to Dawn as she finds herself caught in a twisted game of cat and mouse that leaves her wondering: who’s the real victim? But one thing is incredibly clear: somebody hated Dawn Schiff. Enough to kill.
