Description:
1st in the Jordan Poteet series, Mirabeau, Texas librarian
Mystery Lovers Review:
Jeff Abbott introduces us to Jordan Poteet in this debut novel and I for one, hope we will see many more appearances for this charming sleuth. Tired of life in the big city, Poteet returns to his hometown--Mirabeau, Texas looking for tranquility as the town librarian. Unfortunately, he doesn’t figure on tangling with Beta Harcher, the town’s guardian of religious truth, in a knock-down, drag-out fight over censorship. As you might expect, Beta is found dead--in the library--and Poteet is the prime suspect. Abbott combines a fine comic sense with an appreciation for the things that make small towns special and wraps it in a good puzzle. J
