Leonardtown Library

Meeting Room 1

Join us to discuss a different cozy mystery on the 3rd Thursday of each month at the Leonardtown Library. Be ready to talk about a genre that puts us all at ease while keeping us on our toes.

It's Summer vacation season which means it's the perfect time to read Every Time I Go on Vacation, Someone Dies by Catherine Mack (2024), the first in her Vacation Mysteries series.

Best selling author Eleanor Dash just wants to get through her Italian book tour and then kill off the main character of her Vacation Mysteries series. However, someone seems to want to kill the character's real life inspiration, a handsome and infuriating con man. As life begins to imitate her books, Eleanor is enlisted to help solve the case. Theories are thrown around and rivalries, rifts, broken hearts, and more are revealed, but who is the person literally trying to get away with murder?
