Blurb:


A rare book reveals a deadly truth.

Maddie stumbles upon a rare book that hints at an unsolved murder—the suspicious death of a famous author—leading her and Mike into a decades-old mystery filled with betrayal and lies.

At the annual library book sale, Maddie discovers a rare, annotated copy of a cult classic that once belonged to its late author, Francis Fitzcott—who tragically fell to his death thirty years ago. As she flips through the pages, Maddie finds a note hinting at foul play. With Mike's help, they dig into the past, unearthing secrets about Fitzcott's marriage to Griselda Sawyer, who vanished from the literary scene after his death. As they piece together the truth, Maddie and Mike realize the mystery is far more complex than they imagined—and someone is willing to do anything to keep the past buried. Can they uncover the truth behind Fitzcott’s death before they become targets themselves?

Booked for Murder is the tenth and final story in the Mike and Maddie Mysteries.

My Review:

Mike visits a book sale with Maddie. A rare, annotated copy of a cult classic that belonged to its late creator, Francis Fitzcott, is found by Maddie. Maddie discovers a message inside the book after buying it, which may provide evidence that the author's death was not accidental after all.

A network of secrets that someone wishes to keep hidden and is prepared to pay a high price to do so is revealed by Mike and Maddie's research. In an attempt to learn the author's fate, Mike and Maddie race against the clock. Was it murder or an accident? Will Maddie and Mike be the killer's next victims? Before it is too late, can they figure out this mystery?

Every book in the Mike and Maddie Mysteries has been enjoyable to read, and I am sorry to see it come to a conclusion. Every book is a fantastic read in its own unique way, with several twists and turns that kept the pages turning and numerous secrets that someone constantly desired to remain that way and was prepared to pay a price for to do so.

All of the Mike and Maddie Mysteries volumes, including Booked for Murder, are highly recommended. Get a copy of every book now to follow Mike and Maddie on all of their exciting cases and escapades!
