New York Times bestselling author Lucy Arlington's Novel Idea Mysteries return with Lila Wilkins, who has just been promoted to full-time literary agent. But great new writers aren't the only people she's trying to catch... Lila Wilkins has it all: the home of her dreams in the charming town of Inspiration Valley, North Carolina; a perfect police officer boyfriend; and a new job she absolutely loves. At the Book and Author Festival, which is sponsored by the Novel Idea Literary Agency, Lila expects to discover some talented new authors, but what she finds instead is the body of an editor to whom she bears an eerie resemblance. Trouble is, the editor's death isn't the only literary murder taking place. Soon a blossoming author is also killed, and Lila has a gut feeling that the two murders are linked. Now she must hunt down the dark figure who killed these women--and to her surprise, she just might find the clues hidden in a manuscript...Review Quotes
Praise for Buried in a Book "An entertaining thriller." --Genre Go Round Reviews "Will appeal to anyone who loves reading, especially anyone who loves discovering a new author."--The Mystery Reader "A charming new protagonist." --Mystery Scene
"Cheer up, there's no middle-age malaise for Lila. This cozy debut excels at describing bucolic North Carolina. Think Kate Carlisle for her intergenerational ensemble style or Mark de Castrique's series for regional Tar Heel flavor." --Library Journal
About the Author
Lucy Arlington is an avid reader, cook, and gardener. If she had her way, she'd divide her time between preparing delectables in her kitchen, traveling the globe on her scooter, and sitting in a comfortable chair with a cup of coffee and a paperback until her legs cramped. Lucy is devoted to her husband and children - especially when they ply her with chocolate and gift cards to bookstores.Dimensions (Overall): 6.7 Inches (H) x 4.1 Inches (W) x 1.1 Inches (D)
