LETHAL LEGACY

Alexandra Cooper gets called to a very strange case. A woman has been attacked by a man who used chloroform to sedate her. The woman refuses all help. When another woman is found dead a few days later, there are many questions to be answered. Everything seems to lead back to the New York Public Libary and the Hunt family who have donated many items to the libary. Bill, Mercer and Alex dig into the world of rare books, old maps and the fascinating history of the New York Public Library.

Linda Fairstein's Alexandra Cooper series is truly one of my favorites. I loved learning about the New York Public Library. It seemed like there was something lacking in the details of Alex's personal life and the interaction with her partners. She is still romantically involved with Luc who seems like a great guy but all of the time, as a reader, you are rooting for her and Bill to get together! Maybe not the best in the series, but as always, Linda Fairstein knows how to keep me entertained.

Rating - 4.5 stars
