Brand-new librarian Meg Booker is just supposed to be checking out books. Instead, it's the patrons who are being checked out--permanently. April 1985. Fir Grove Library, Portland, Oregon: Big hair. Leggings. Card catalogs. Kicking kids with giant boom boxes out of the library. Meg's got it all handled-until her boss takes off on a way-too-long vacation and leaves her in charge. Right away, things start going wrong. Historical records disappear out of the archives. The hot new library page skateboards into work-or doesn't-whenever he feels like it. A simmering feud boils over between two prominent and universally loathed patrons-nicknamed "The Witch" and "Leisure Suit Lothario"-leaving Meg scrambling to keep the peace. Then the Witch turns up dead in the library conference room. The police say it's natural causes, but Meg suspects murder-and no librarian worth her reference desk credentials leaves a question unanswered. Aided by the library's mystery book club, and armed with mad research skills, she sets out to prove what really happened. But when there's another death-and one of her friends is arrested -Meg must unmask the real murderer before it's too late. A Shush Before Dying is the first book of the Meg Booker Librarian Mysteries-a cozy library mystery series set in the 1980s.

Autorenporträt
A life-long resident of the beautiful Pacific Northwest, Dale Ivan Smith has his mother to thank for his love of science fiction and fantasy. When he was five, he glimpsed the cover of a paperback sci-fi novel she was reading and was immediately interested. (It had a giant radioactive spider on the cover.) When he was fifteen, she loaned him her collection of Edgar Rice Burroughs's Barsoom novels and he devoured them in short order. He got into trouble in grade school for sneaking off to the library during class, so naturally he wound up working as a librarian for the Multnomah County Library system in Portland, Oregon. He's been writing fiction since he was a kid. He's had stories published in Perihelion Science Fiction, Everyday Fiction, 10Flash Quarterly, and on the Toasted Cake podcast. The Empowered is his first novel series, beginning with Empowered: Agent. When he isn't writing or reading fantasy and science fiction, he's playing board games, practicing yoga, and obeying his feline overlords. Show More
