Description
In Fateful Words, the eighth Scottish Bookshop Mystery from beloved author Paige Shelton, bookseller Delaney Nichols stakes her reputation—and her life—when a literary tour turns deadly...
When Edwin, Delaney’s boss at the Cracked Spine bookstore, leaves town on secret business, Delaney is called upon to guide his yearly literary tour around Edinburgh. But on the first night of the tour, at the inn where the tour group is staying, the inn manager falls—or is pushed—off the roof of the inn, and killed. Then, one of the tour members disappears, leaving a trail of puzzles in her wake.
In a race against the clock, Delaney sets out on the expedition of her life, following clues around Edinburgh to get to the bottom of this mystery. Exploring sights from Greyfriars Bobby to the Royal Mile to the Sir Walter Scott Monument, she'll have to put the pieces together quickly, or the bookstore's survival could be on the line...as well as her own.

Where Can I Sign Up For a Tour
5By TheScarringScarlettThis is the eighth installment of the Scottish Bookshop Mystery Series, and it’s fantastic. I’ve been hooked since the Cracked Spine (1) due to the lovely characters and wonderful mysteries. I love all of the different Scottish historical themes that are presented in each book. I will always long to visit and see everything for myself, but for now…I live through Paige Shelton & Delaney. There are so many great characters in this book. Loved the aspect of having to conduct a tour while a murder had just taken place. Super interesting puzzles to be solved that make it hard to put the book down. Whodunit? The ultimate question is anything but easy to solve. You’ll just have to read it to find out! Anxiously waiting for the next, x Sarah - Anneoftucson Reviews
