The Secret Lives Of Librarians: a novel by 44

A new detective, she thought she was ready for anything. A reticent librarian, he wanted only a calm existence. Thrown together into an investigation of stolen erotic paintings, the two find themselves deep in the criminal underworld. Guns, drugs, art: they’re connected, there’s big money involved and no one is who they seem. What at first appeared easy turns deadly as Sol and Lorelei strip away the layers of a hidden cabal. Against the odds, they form a partnership that will challenge an array of powerful enemies. A city flares up in the heat of summer and nobody will walk away unscathed.
