But things begin heating up inside, too, when members clash with the domineering head of the puzzle committee over which puzzle to solve-until someone settles the matter by killing her. Now it's up to Sophie \"Phee\" Kimball to put all the pieces of the murder plot together and catch the culprit responsible. Any number of the jigsaw aficionados could have wanted the victim out of the picture for her personality alone, but Phee suspects there was a more sinister motive behind the murder. Then the chosen puzzle and the library itself are struck by one instance of sabotage after another, and Phee's convinced that someone is sending a menacing message. But just as she unearths a telling clue and slots it into place, she finds herself in a race against time to finish the puzzle and solve the case-before the killer goes to pieces and finishes her off too . . .\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePraise for the Books of J.
