The Department of Rare Books and Special Collections / Eva Jurczyk, read by Hannah Cabell, 323 pgs.
Liesl returns from sabbatical when a health issue puts the boss out of commission. He is a well-respected and dynamic leader who excels at fundraising. Closer to retirement than a burning desire to take the helm, Liesl immediately discovers a very rare and expensive Plantin Bible set has gone missing. Is it misplaced or has there been a silent heist? Next a librarian goes missing. Are these events related? The story has enough personal detail that the characters, their interactions and history are as intriguing as the mystery. The end result reveals the exciting life of librarians and is a study on leadership. Narrator Hannah Cabell does a great job conveying Liesl’s frustration, stress and exhaustion while voicing other characters with equal aplomb.
