The cover of The Body in the Library caught my eye first. Interested to hear whether the story matches the mood.

Niamh, same question here. A quick note on the pace would help me make up my mind.

The Body in the Library is one I am weighing up. The pitches in here are useful. A couple of lines about the tone can tell me more than a score.

Niamh, i have added a boost too. Would be interesting to see how it sits beside the other choices.

For anyone considering The Body in the Library: Could someone add a spoiler-free note about the opening? That is usually what helps me choose.
