Book Synopsis



In Lauren Elliott's fourth USA Today bestselling Beyond the Page Bookstore Mystery, bookshop owner Addie Greyborne must solve a locked-room murder in a supposedly haunted mansion to recover a priceless Sherlock Holmes original...

The seaside New England town of Greyborne Harbor is home to many grand estates, including the Queen Anne Victorian Addie inherited from her great aunt. Now one of those mansions is holding an estate sale, which is just what the bookshop owner needs to replenish her supply of rare editions--even if the house is rumored to be haunted. Assisting an overwhelmed insurance appraiser with the inventory, Addie discovers an 1887 magazine containing Arthur Conan Doyle's first Sherlock Holmes novel, A Study in Scarlet, which she estimates to be worth over one hundred and fifty thousand dollars.

But when Addie later finds the appraiser dead in the estate's private library, with the door bolted from the inside, and the priceless edition missing, it's a mystery worthy of the Great Detective himself. She's certain the death and the robbery are connected--but who, other than a ghost who can walk through walls, could have gotten in to do the deed? It's up to Addie to find the key to the crime--before she's the next one cornered by a killer...

A Bit of Spooky

You get to go along with Addie and imagine what an old spooky house's charm would look like of the 1700s along with the excitement and exploration of a fascinating secret discovery in it which to a certain extent holds true to wealthy house holds of this Era. I always enjoy how this author throws in names of historical books which can be a fun side activity to look up to research on your own and even to create another "to read" book list.

The perfect haunted mansion setting

Hill Road House is haunted. Kathleen Gallagher fell down the steps and died….or did she? Addie is heading to a real estate sale at Hill Road House, the most haunted mansion in Greyborne Harbor. Upon her arrival, she sees her cousin Kalea whom she hasn’t seen in 10 years. They quickly get roped into appraising and taking inventory of some of the old books -including a book estimated to be worth $150,000!! The next morning, Addie finds the dead appraiser….in the locked library, but how?! All clues point to Addie in this one and she must quickly prove her innocence or end up in jail. Proof Of Murder is book number 4 in this cozy mystery series and my favorite so far! There were multiple mysteries sprinkled throughout this one, TWO handfuls of suspects, and a nagging feeling that someone is always watching you. Also, the love triangle is DONE!
