In her second Scottish outing (after The Cracked Spine), American Delaney Nichols is running an errand for her bookshop boss Edwin MacAlister to pick up a rare comic book, when she stumbles upon the body of the seller. Once again, she is on the trail of a crime in Edinburgh, with links to Edwin's mysterious past. Shelton's breezy cozy series may interest readers who enjoy Sheila Connolly's "County Cork" mysteries.—LH
