The Seventh Sinner

The Seventh Sinner by Elizabeth Peters

Jean Suttman is part of a group of student scholars in Rome, enjoying her good luck and her new found friends.  But then she stumbles across a dying man whom everyone hated, and seemingly random "accidents" threaten to make Jean a victim as well.  Thankfully librarian Jacqueline Kirby is there to help find the killer.

It's about time that a witty, intelligent librarian is the heroine of a story.  Librarians are not known for their sparkling banter and interesting personalities, but Jacqueline is the exception.  If only more librarians could combine their knowledge with even a hint of charisma.
