A waitress turned librarian just wants a new life. What she ends up with is a killer change of pace in a funny, snappy, and suspenseful mystery by Edgar Award-nominated author Jess Lourey. With a cheating boyfriend, a thankless career in waitressing, and her BA in English going to waste, Mira James jumps at the chance for a fresh start in rural Battle Lake, Minnesota. Right away she lands a job as a librarian, snags another as an on-call reporter for the weekly newspaper, and is swept off her feet by Jeff Wilson, a handsome archaeologist unearthing the town's storied history. Moving here might be the best decision Mira's ever made. Until she finds Jeff's body between the library's reference stacks. It seems Mira didn't really know her drop-dead gorgeous new lover at all. But someone in Otter Tail County surely did. Behind this quirky town's polite exterior are decades-old grudges still unsettled, and murderous secrets best kept hidden. Whatever dangers are buried in Battle Lake's past, now it's Mira's turn to start digging. Revised edition: This edition of May Day includes editorial revisions.
