Marvey, still adjusting to life in Peach Coast, Georgia, is at a library fundraising event when she comes across a list of four names. One is the name of someone who recently died—and who may have been murdered. Another is Spencer Holt, the handsome newspaper owner who's become one of Marvey's best friends. The four people appear to have nothing in common other than living in Peach Coast. Spencer dismisses the list at first, but before long, he has to admit he may be in danger. As Marvey prepares for a visit from her parents, can she, Spencer, and their intrepid librarian friends stop a killer bent on long overdue revenge?

      After a successful fundraiser for the Peach Coast, Ga., library in Matthews’s sugary sequel to 2021’s Murder by Page One, Marvey Harris, the library’s director of community engagement, comes across a list with four names on it. One person on the list has recently died. One is found dead shortly after the party. Has Marvey found a hit list? Marvey takes it to the police, who dismiss her concerns. But Marvey’s friend and secret crush, newspaper publisher and scion of the richest family in town, Spence Holt, is on the list, and Marvey won’t rest until the killer is caught and she knows he’s safe. Never mind the underdeveloped characters and the saccharine sentiments. A de rigueur budding romance, an intrepid heroine who rushes headlong into danger to keep her friends safe, and a happily-ever-after ending make this the prose equivalent of a Hallmark family movie. Lovers of small-town cozies can while away a pleasant afternoon with this one. Agent: Jill Marsal, Marsal Lyon Literary.

      An interesting array of characters expertly voiced by Janina Edwards and a mysterious list of murder victims combine for a cozy adventure in the second installment of the Peach Coast Library mysteries. Marvella, who works for the local library, involves other library staff in the murder investigations, along with her friend, Spence. They all seek to find a connection among the victims. This sweetness of this story is evident in its touch of romance and the family dynamic between Marvella and her parents, who seem a bit over-involved in their daughter's life. Edwards moves seamlessly between voices, creating a diverse cast of characters in this entertaining mystery. C.F. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine
