The Torn Library Card | A Miss Marple Mystery

At the reopening of Elmswick Library, a restored village landmark becomes the scene of a deadly old secret when half of a torn library card appears inside a locked display case. What begins as a curious disturbance soon leads to murder in the reading room, a burned borrowing ledger, returned books hidden for twenty years, and the erased name of a vanished schoolmaster. As Miss Marple reads between the lines of old records, false accounts, and respectable silence, she uncovers the truth behind Matthew Harrison’s disgrace—and the person who killed to control which part of the past would finally be returned.
