I don't know how a librarian from Seneca Falls happens to meet so many influential people. She even gets to meet the Lincolns (you know, Abraham and Mary) in this book. But then she needs some excitement in her life, besides solving murders, unraveling mysteries, fending off three men who care deeply for her and staring down a mountain lion.

I didn't like this one as much as I did the the others. Plus the end of the murderer was just too much to accept. Reminded me of another mystery series staring an independent woman where the evil folks get killed by lightening. I gave up on that series.

Then I think the author made a slight mistake when she had Glynis write a letter to her uncle in San Francisco and get an answer back in a week. Hey, it is 1859! I'm not 100% positive of this as I would have had to reread several chapters to be sure, and didn't. But I'm pretty sure she made this mistake.
