About this event
Join us for Mystery Readers' Monday on Monday, July 28 at 6:30 pm! We will discuss Under Lock and Skeleton Key by Gigi Pandian
Genre: Amateur Sleuth 368 pgs.
After a disastrous accident derails Tempest Raj's career, and life, she heads back to her childhood home in California to comfort herself with her grandfather's Indian home-cooked meals. Though she resists, every day brings her closer to the inevitable: working for her father's company. Secret Staircase Construction specializes in bringing the magic of childhood to all by transforming clients' homes with sliding bookcases, intricate locks, backyard treehouses, and hidden reading nooks.
When Tempest visits her dad's latest renovation project, her former stage double is discovered dead inside a wall that's supposedly been sealed for more than a century. Fearing she was the intended victim, it's up to Tempest to solve this seemingly impossible crime. But as she delves further into the mystery, Tempest can't help but wonder if the Raj family curse that's plagued her family for generations--something she used to swear didn't exist--has finally come for her.
Copies will be available at the front desk one month prior to discussion. The book is also available on Libby as an eBook and Hoopla as an audiobook.
