Better Late Than Never is the seventh mystery novel in the Library Lover’s Mysteries series by Jenn McKinlay.
Briar Creek Public Library held its first overdue book amnesty day, with more incoming documents than Lindsey and her staff could handle.
In a bind, Lindsey drafted the afternoon ladies to help check and organize stacks of books. But a belated work caught her attention—a copy of J. D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye, 20 years past due.
When Lindsey searches for a borrower, she is shocked to discover it’s a murdered school teacher named Candice Whitley, whose killer was never found. Now, Lindsey wonders if it could provide clues to the decades-long cold case.
Lindsey is determined to catch the culprit one way or another, as justice for Candice Whitley is long overdue.
