Uncle Walter, the black sheep of the family, has died and left all his possessions to Nora, his niece. She arrives in St. Augustine to find a unique bookshop, a greyhound, and a lovely house are just some of her uncle's riches. Alas, his death is revealed to be more than just a heart attack and it's up to Nora and her newfound friends to get both the truth and justice for Uncle Walter.
What a fantastic cosy! I loved this book with all its eccentric yet adorable characters. I was almost jealous of the main character as she lucked into a whole bunch of really great friendships as soon as she hit town. And she got a beach, too!
Body in the Books is a brilliant introduction to a fabulous new series.

Great read
What a fun, fast read. Fun characters, great setting. I love Ms Huffman's writing and this book doesn't disappoint. Can't wait to run into Nora and Margo again in other stories.
